Story
Taking YOUR children on holiday is NOT always possible in holiday time, and there may be times where it is appropriate AND in the child's best interest for them to go on a family holiday in term time. While education is very very important to a child's life chances, parents know that it does NOT trump All the other important things in a child's life, like their emotional stability. PARENTS must decide what is best for THEIR children and the current fines and prosecutions must now END!

So just a quick update to thank all of you again for your donations. As most of you will know, we won and therefore the IW Council will be paying all the legal fees. That means the £2307 you all donated is leaving by cheque to the NSPCC today. A perfect end to this.

I own a small family business called JMP Partnership. I have two daughters,10 and 7 and a step son of 6. I work very hard because I LOVE taking my kids on fantastic holidays to places like DisneyWorld & Lapland because there's no prize for being the richest man in the graveyard
