T.C.A. 49-6–3009 – Penalty for Violations - (a) Any parent, guardian or other person who has control of a child, or children, and who violates the provisions of this part commits a Class C misdemeanor.
(b) Each day's unlawful absence constitutes a separate offense.
T.C.A. 40-35–111 – Terms of Imprisonment or Fines - (3) Class C misdemeanor, not greater than thirty (30) days or a fine not to exceed fifty dollars ($50.00), or both, unless otherwise provided by statute.
Do you agree with this ?
I do for young children . But I can remember how easy it was to cut class as a teen . My parents had no idea I was cutting class . They saw me get on the bus and assumed I stayed at school all day but got a ride home from a friend .
