In question are whether these laws are just and equitable. Is one situation more criminal than the other? In these difficult economic times, when federal and local state budgets for education are being cut, should we be prosecuting and jailing parents who are legal, tax paying citizens for attempting to send their children to safer, higher quality schools, while not expelling children from families who are in the country illegally, nor prosecuting or deporting undocumented parents?
