    ...and the aforementioned trips to the dentist, free preschool, all sorts of counseling and interventionists, etc.

    All for kids whose parents can't even be bothered to show up for a single teacher conference, open house, tours, kids' performances, and on an on.

    Pretty sad, isn't it?
    I have dealt with bratty kids whose parents refuse to answer or return phone calls, refuse certified letters and appear to care zero about their child's performance or behavior in school.
    Until we petition the court to remand their child to juvenile detention. Then they lawyer up and come at us.

    Gabby, God bless you, I couldn't do what you do. I don't have the patience!

    So feed the kids lunch and go after the parents for being bad parents. Doing one doesn't preclude you from doing the other.
