Yeah, me either. I have two kids, and they both did great in school and my daughter is doing great in college, my son starts next year.
I went to school functions on occasion, but I can't recall an urgent need from the teachers to meet with me.
And if there was a conference scheduled, and I couldn't make it, I didn't go. I did plenty at home to help my kids with school. When they were at school, I left it to the teachers to do their job.
Putting someone in jail for missing a conference, especially a good parent that cares about their child's education, is ridiculous.
