ny assembly parent law bill proposes fining parents $500 for their kid's first school suspension, because apparently holding kids accountable is too mainstream now
AITA for thinking the NY Assembly just invented a new way to make parenting even more expensive? Like, my kid acts up in class, and instead of a stern talking-to, the state wants to hit my wallet with a $500 fine. TL;DR: They're calling it accountability, but it feels like a tax on chaos. So bold of them to assume parents can afford that after buying organic snacks for the lunchbox. 🙄
