The parents do have the right not to send the child to school on health grounds. They also have the option just to send the child part-time (e.g mornings but not afternoons). Potentially, (depending on local authorities) they have the right to paid home tutoring for their child.

However, if the child is sent to school (for any length of time), the school should have the full (necessary) details of the child's medical condition, along with an action plan should a seizure occur. This plan should be arranged by organising a meeting with the parents (and potentially the child, depending on the child's age), in order to discuss the concerns of all parties. It helps if the parents have a clear idea of what they would like to be done to help their child; bring along a "checklist" of what should be done/who to call should their child have a seizure at school.

The school should be prepared to give the child any necessary medication or first aid. If there is a school nurse, she should be made aware of the child's condition.

What happens to the estate of a child that dies in a motorcycle accident and the parents are divorced and one of the parents is 9000.00 in arears on the child support and hasn't seen them in 4 yrs?

Both parents have a cause of action with respect to the child's wrongful death. Each parent is an heir of the child, in equal shares, absent a Will. hm im not 2 sure whys that Why? Because the divorce of a child's parents is not a divorce of a child from a parent. In other words, it does not terminate the parent-child relationship between the child and either parent.


Can a custodial parent prevent the non-custodial parent from having someone else pick the child up from school?

School is not a place of visitation, and ultimately the school is responsible for returning the child to the custodial parent at the end of the day, unless that specific custodial parent has notified the school of other arrangements. In this situation, it is imperative that the court order that sets forth legal custody be on file at the school.You need to check the laws in your particular jurisdiction by consulting an attorney or an advocate at the family court. Your question implies a non-custodial parent taking the child out of school during the school day. Generally, Unless the parents have shared legal custody, the non-custodial parent has no right to remove the child from school.The parent with sole legal custody should make certain the school has a copy of the court order that granted them sole legal custody. If someone other than the custodial parent will be picking up the child during the school day the parent should notify the principal in writing and also call to confirm. If necessary, the school should have on record a copy of the visitation schedule if the non-custodial parent will pick the child up after school on their visitation days.


Can a parent with joint custody over a child change the child's school without the other parents consent?

I would certainly question the violation of privacy rights by any school that used email correspondence. A "girlfriend" who is not the biological parent. Has no legal or ethical right to information of minor children. If the a parent gave permission, and the school released such information, the other biological parent has every right to object. And the legal right to have it stopped.

In Teaching American values in school can help shape a child and .?

Schools don't teach values that is the parents job and it is the parents job to shape the child. Before a child ever reaches school the parent is the first teacher and what the child will become is set before they are 4 years old. Unfortunately many parents expect the school to be the parent, teacher, nurse, and counselor. This is an impossible task because without the parent the school can't do it all. The parent is the most important person (or should be) in a child's life and who or what the child grows up to be is the responsibility of the parent not the school.
