What factors are considered in determining whether or not a child should go to school?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Plank v. Plank, 2008 BCSC 519 (CanLII):
Those factors were considered by Mr. Justice Joyce in Jhutti v. Jhutti, 2005 BCSC 1180. In that case, the child was working and attending school part time. He had started a small business, and his plans to go to school in the fall were “very much up in the air.” Mr. Justice Joyce found at paragraph 9 that even if the child did go to school, there was no evidence what courses he might take, what the cost would be, what financial assistance might be available by way of loans, scholarships or bursaries, and whether he would work part time.
