Then without her consent or knowledge her parents and changed her entire schedule around. she got her schedule and still her parents said nothing but she found out that her friend had seen her dad at the counselor
she called them on it and got to listen to them tell her how she couldn't handle the class and doesn't understand why she would do this to herself.she told them how this year was going to be different but they just kept telling her how she couldnt do it,
also she got put into an earth science class instead of chemistry. this does not give her credits she needs and all the cp chem. classes were full
i was just wondering what your opinion is of this?
Answers:
My opinion is that there is more than one side to every story. We know only your side of it. It is impossible to really have an opinion about it without hearing all sides of the story. And while it would seem to be best if parents made such decisions with the involvement of the children, the parents are still the ones who are responsible, and your friend is a minor. They do have a say, but often they do not, and should not, have the final say.
Allowed
As unfortunate as that is for your friend, a parent is allowed to decide to remove a child from a specific class.
its wrong but, yea as a minor her parents can do anything they want. also if the counciler also went along with the idea there is nothing she can really do
To answer your question as-asked, yes, parents do have the right, and the responsibility, to do what they see as being in their childs best interest. Minors have very little say at all. Not knowing anything about your friend, about why she "messed-up her grades" or what her "Life-changing moment" entailed, (this being a girl, I am guessing pregnancy/motherhood) I will go with the parents judgement being the correct one in this case, they are the ones responsible for her, and their knowledge of her aptitudes, capabilities, and inclinations is going to be far greater than mine, or yours.
