But are those children any better off now? If a child has whatever it
takes to succeed in school when the parents have no care, they ought to
still do well. There will be organizations working with these children
(there are now). They will find most of the children who will benefit.
NO system can guarantee that NO ONE will fall through the cracks.
Of course many of the children who are not sent to school by their
parents will end up running afoul of the law. You can bet your booties
that however the justice system works, I'm going to expect that it will
do something to make sure that these kids get an education to make them
sufficiently productive to offset the cost of supporting them.
