Parents get forced into it due to the laws and societal expectations (juries/civil cases). Guess who can go to jail if their teenage kid doesn't go to school? Fix that law, and then we can start talking about these.

Yes we should fix those laws. But now most schools let you stay late, no reason they won’t be able to let you come earlier for those who need it.
