Yes it would put stress on the parent not to leave the a TV job for the sake of keeping the child in the Charter school..... but this stress could be caused by many reasons the employers attitude and work conditions or the simple fact that the parent may not want to work in the first place but has to for the sake of the child. If employment conditions are that bad, could the parent in a bad situation try and find another job in TV...not easy but it could be done?

What I found disturbing was a teacher at the Charter schools died and within weeks the surviving parent received notice that the children had to be removed from the school NOW ...not at the end of the term but immediately. The situation you described "can" be controlled by the parent, the one I described could not!...Sort of makes you think on what we say or do!
It that's true, it's abominable and should be published as much as possible so a public outcry ensues and enough embarrassment caused to force a change in policy. Sure, let's cause additional trauma to the spouse and kids by kicking them out mid-term and making them start over in a new school while still grieving. How heartless can you get.
