Well here we go again with more drama related to the foreclosure crisis we are experiencing in this country.
It seems that parents, with an attempt to keep their children in the schools they have been in prior to losing their home, are faking addresses. According to the WSJ some school systems are hiring private invesitgators (Magnum, PI, Simon and Simon) to determine the addresses of these families.
There are enough people being disrupted by the foreclosure process. People are leaving their homes because they can no longer afford the home. Homeowners and their children have had to get rid of their pets because they were moving into rental units that don't allow pets (I write this as I'm surrounded by my 3 dogs who I wouldn't live without). So now we have schools spending taxpayer money to make sure that children are going to the school they are supposed to. What a waste of money and resources! Come on Boards of Education, focus on what you are supposed to focus on .... educating our young!
