re: Washington DC to consider garnishing wages of parents with chronically absent children

Chronic absenteeism is a national epidemic and the larger, more urban your school district is, the worse it is.
IMO, this a direct correlation to the preposterous Covid restrictions seen by the public in regards to their children being used as pawns by people that were supposed to have their children’s best interests at heart.
Regardless of socio-economic coin you fall on, they’ve lost complete respect and trust in anything coming out of a public school district’s mouth, especially anything uttered by a teacher’s union.
Those children were just magic wanded through the time they missed from an in-person education and those parents see through the hypocrisy and sham.
