[QUOTE="GuideMe, post: 644657, member: 18233"] That's all changing.... In my state, the legal drop out age is now 17. If I am not mistaken, the age is Cali is now 18 (yikes!) Pretty soon, the legal age of drop out will be 18 in all states, really soon. It's in the works now. Many states are have already changed it to 18 already. And they are VERY strict MWM. In my day and your day, truancy never was an issue, it was so rare. Education laws were laxed. Not anymore. A parent will go to jail and be fined out the buttocks for the children missing days at school. It's happening to people I know as we speak. I would say in the last 5 years is when it started to get really strict, so that's why you might not be aware. [/QUOTE]
