If your daughter misses any classes she'll flunk and have to take the year again" "Debby, why do you walk out of class all the time when the teacher is talking about our lord and master Lucifer. Don't you want to have us as friends? Don't you want to belong?" Tell me, do you have any children? I do. We had a major problem this year because the teacher was telling her to do one thing and we said something else. My daughters response was, the school is always right. Now that's influence.
