Check out this complex piece from 2010 Brave New Voices

Meet Kelly Williams-Bolar, the woman who was jailed for sending her children to school in a better school district in Akron,Ohio. Friday, the Ohio parole board unanimously denied her pardon, stating, “Ms. Williams-Bolar was faced with a no more difficult situation than any other working parent who must ensure that their children are safe during, before and after school hours in their absence …”

I just want to identify that regardless of any court ruling that takes place, I commend this woman for combating this social injustice that is educational inequality and keeping her children at the center of her concern. As the child of a single mom, you are indeed a Shero to me.
