You can absolutely disagree with a school rule, and even form a committee to change it and be a great parent. BUT if you deliberately refuse to have your child comply with a rule you disagree with, then you are a crappy parent.

You can disagree with and even dismiss sweeping school policies and still be a very, very good parent.

Kids' school has a very strict policy of not sending your children to school with a fever or stomach problems. They also have a very strict policy requiring doctor's notes for all absences. I called them up and told them I wouldn't comply with the 2nd policy and not to bother me.

I then gathered my children around and told them that some people make dumb rules with no power to enforce them, and that their job as free citizens was to ignore such petty tyrants
