After-school time is strictly under parental jurisdiction, and is not the business of teachers or schools. As the parent of a 17-year-old daughter I firmly believe in seeing that schoolwork comes first, but if a teacher ever told me how to raise my child they'd be looking at a lawsuit.

Isolation like prohibition have never really worked. That fact alone does not seem to deter people from trying it again and again. Whatever happened to choice and learning about responsibility?
