Tell us how you feel about the notion of punishing parents if their children are failing in school. Which of the proposals described in the article, if any, seem sensible to you? That is, should parents be graded, as has been proposed in Florida; forced to do school volunteer work, as has been proposed in Indiana; fined if children are truant, as is currently done in Alaska; or forced to attend parenting classes if the child is in a gang, as is currently done in California? What complications might judging parents in any of these ways raise?

            In some cases  the parent can be blame when a child is failing, due to what there teaching them in there household. If there to bus working, there not home making sure the child is doing there homework. Yet sometimes students doesn't apply themselves, so why should the parent be held accountable for that. I believe the proposals of parents blame is more sensible.
  Yes parent should be graded, because some teachers never see students parents to inform them of what thee child can improve on. Parents being graded, as it has been proposed in Florida; forced to do school volunteer work, as has been the proposals described in the article, if any, seem sensible to you? That is, should parents be graded, as has been proposed in Florida; forced to do school volunteer work, as has been proposed in Indiana; fined if children are truant, as is currently done in Alaska; or forced to attend parenting classes if the child is in a gang, as is currently done in California?
   If child is in a gang that has to do with how thee brought up. In that case no punishment should be involved, only that the child and parent has to go to consoling.
