Mother-of-five
faces jail because her son did not attend lessons while he was grieving the
death of his father - but the school said it was not a good enough reason
For this weeks “Sunday News” I have decided to talk about a story, which
I found on the main page of the Daily News. This story describes how a woman is
being prosecuted by a council due to a low attendance of one of the sons whose
father recently died in an accident
I found this story interesting and decided to express my own opinion
about it, as personally I believe that the woman was put in a critical situation and it just shows how heartless and cruel some people can be just to
get money out of others.
The council and school knew very well about the situation that the
family was in, yet they still decided to place the mother in trouble just for
their own good, and not considering the effect which, this can cause on the
children who are now scared that “They will loose the mother too”.
Furthermore, the article also describes how the schools of the other
children were supportive of the situation and did not make any problems about
the children’s attendance.
In addition, I think that it is important that this story was placed as
the biggest article on the main page of the Daily Mail website as it will catch
the attention of the readers and may interest them enough into completing some
kind of action which, may help the family, however, also to prevent another
situation like this from happening in the future.
