I got caught in high-school 20 years ago when they noticed my Mom and Dad had the same signature on my absent excuses. I was pretty stupid then and had to stay after school for a couple of days.

Do you think today's school would have had me prosecuted for forgery or defrauding the school?

You'd probably still be serving time.

If they can suspend you for using a chicken bone as a "gun", sure.
This is a real crime; it's not rocket science.

I'm pushing 40. Just the other week I signed my Dad's signature (well enough) just to see if I still could.

It is like riding a bike.
