Taking your kids out of school is illegal in many places in Europe. Children are supposed to be in school. And if you are not the assigned pickup that is an automatic national alert for abduction.
You are such a typical German, afraid of the law. There are laws that are important like murder and stealing and then there are laws that are not important like jaywalking and being a public nuisance. You need to stop treating the latter like the former.
Not having your kids in school is an offense that is ranked significantly higher than jaywalking. I don’t see how you are comparing it to murder. Afraid of the law is a silly statement. Laws are made by the democratic system. Adhere to them.
There is a reason not bringing your kids to school can lead to jail time. It’s a serious offense.
I now read that German police will stop and check families with kids in airports the days immediately before and after public holidays.
Chilling "Ihre papiere bitte" vibes there.
Not doing a great job at avoiding stereotypes, you guys maybe could historically benefit from saner laws and a healthier relationship with them.
