Adding to that, let me offer a suggestion on how it could be improved:

Original: ”Porque continua a mandar os seus filhos para a escola?”

Grammatically correct: ”Por que continua a mandar os seus filhos para a escola?”

More naturally sound: ”Por que você continua a mandar seus filhos para a escola?”

update of comment above: I just learned from kentosi comment that "Porque" without a space in a question is gramatically correct if you are using portuguese from Portugal. So, consider that I made my suggestions in Brazilian Portuguese.
