The child could stay in school if the mom would drop her job as a prostitute.

The child should not be punished for the actions of her mother. The contract is subject to interpretation. When the child is with her mother, the mother is not working and is spending time with her child.

She is not a prostitute.

I thought taking responsibility for your own actions was a conservative idea. The woman was offered help, which in turn would help her daughter, but turned it down, knowing the consequences. Now she is whining and doesnt want to accept responsibility for her actions. Her daughter being expelled is one of the consequences that SHE CREATED. Christ taught us to love, yes, but also to be holy. Holiness demands love, but love also demands holiness. This doesnt mean His Church needs to be a doormat in the name of love and mercy. I got Capital Christian's address from their website. I think its a good idea to support them prayerfully and financially. If there is a legal battle, they will need it. BTW, for those asking what would Jesus do? Ask yourself what you would do before Jesus. Mary Magdalene washed Jesus feet with tears of shame, begging for forgiveness of what was in her life. It is the same thing I or anyone else who would be confronted by the Son of God would do too. Man is an imperfect creature, prone to wander away from God, therefore standards have to be set. Everyone has standards of conduct, as well as consequences for breaking them, small or great. In all, it is unfair to the administration to be vilified for keeping their word. They would be just as dishonest to the child if they let her stay. If conservatives glorify irresponsibility, then God help us.
