Parents of students should foot the bill

I am so sick and tired of the endless whining about funding schools when there is a very simple solution.

Why don’t we let the people who have kids pay for them?

Granted, we all should pay a minimum of school taxes, no problem with that. But, after that, all parents need to pay more for the extra children they dump on the school system.

Two kids in school and you pay twice the school taxes. Three kids in school and you pay three times the school taxes, etc.

When there is a money shortage for schools why is my wallet attacked first?

Where are the concerned parents?

I don’t see a one of them giving any extra money for their children’s education.

And, please, no sad stories about the high cost of raising children.

There’s an old saying for that, “If you can’t feed them, don’t breed them.”
