Progressivism

Strongly agree

Yes

Progressivism generally focuses on social reform and addressing the root causes of societal issues. Decriminalizing school truancy aligns with this ideology, as it shifts the focus from punishment to addressing the underlying reasons for truancy, such as poverty, mental health, and family issues. Historically, progressives have advocated for policies that promote social welfare and equal opportunity, such as the New Deal and the Great Society programs.

Strongly disagree

No

Progressivism is less likely to support criminalizing school truancy, as it tends to emphasize addressing the root causes of social issues rather than punitive measures. Criminalizing truancy can disproportionately affect marginalized communities and perpetuate the school-to-prison pipeline, which goes against the progressive goal of promoting social justice and equality. However, some progressives may still see a role for the government in enforcing school attendance, but through alternative methods such as community-based interventions and support services.
