From reading the article it appears they did not really object to Ivanka's vist -- they objected to the fact that they couldn't protest her visit to show disrespect for the President.

    First off...I have a crush on Ivanka. And, if I can raise my daughter to be like her I'll be a very successful father.

    That said, I have come to realize that a large portion of America, as evidenced by this story, is ridiculous in it's hatred for this President. Two nights ago I heard my own brother say about the tax cut, "It was forced on us." How in the hell do you "force" a tax cut on people. As opposed to what? My mom has lost her mind about Trump. And, my dad is talking gibberish about current events around Trump. Just total gibberish. "Those rich corporate CEOs are celebrating this new tax bill." My response, "It's not the government's money to start with." "(silence)". Anymore, I'm no longer talking politics with anybody - not even close family. The truth just makes people angry anymore...

    The title is misleading...from what I read, only 1 parent pulled her kid from school.
    Besides, I thought shielding students from controversial subjects was a prerequisite for many colleges, nowadays.

      The parents (some of them) were upset that they didn't have the option presented to them. The sense of the article was that more would have pulled students or even demonstrated against President Trump if notified earlier than the day of the event.
      At least that is my take from the article.
