Truancy and weddings


The Daily Mail dailymail.co.uk tells us a mother is prepared to risk prison for taking her son out of school for her wedding.

She need have no fear.  It is permissible and lawful to take a child out of school for exceptional circumstances and what could be more exceptional and important than a wedding of a parent.

The school, which incidentally is a Church of England and should know better, have made unlawful threats which hopefully will not spoil a great day.

One thing is certain.  Children are always “trouble” in the nicest way and a good family lawyer at the end of the phone can often turn things around.  You might want to keep the hylton-potts.com Website details to hand or in your mobile.
