From the Dec. 11, 1996 Daily Report Card:
-> SWEAT DREAMS
-> A mother who said her "night owl" son does not like to go to bed
-> early was placed on 90 days probation because the boy was repeatedly
-> late for kindergarten.  Caroline Edens, an underwriter for an
-> insurance company, was charged with truancy.  The judge ordered her
-> to put her five-year-old to bed at a "proper time," wake him and
-> take him to class.  She also must take a parenting class. (AP/WASH
-> POST, 12/11). Edens, from Plano, Texas, said her son was late no
-> more than 10 times. She also protested that it is not up to the
-> courts or school district to tell her how to raise her child.
