Talk:In loco parentis

Someone, please add to this article

I think it would also be helpful to add blurbs about boarding schools, overnight summer camps, etc. In loco parentis may mean something different here as supervisors in those institutions have more control over a minor's healthcare, well-being, and development. 216.164.33.13 (talk) 17:23, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Congressional Responsibility for Pages (In Loco Parentis)

I'm no legal expert on any subject, never mind the technical detail of this subject matter. I noticed that the only application of this legal term so far is as it relates to educational institutions. I hope some of the professors out there will take a serious look at this and not let the current political machines (left and right) get out in front of this issue. I'm sure that even the justice department will be influenced by the imminent election cycle.

Looking foward to any and all discussions and / or updates on this legal definition of page as it applies to protecting our most sacred resource in government. The definition as it applies to this situation is; "errand runner in U.S. Congress, POLITICS somebody who is employed to run errands, carry messages, act as a guide, and perform other duties in the U.S. Congress”. 1. What does "i loco parentis" mean as it relates to the pages in congress, does it make a difference as it relates to criminal law? Is it just a moral and value term? How is i loco parentis significant to teachers?

Tempting

I am very tempted to add the alternative translation, "My father is an engine driver", but perhaps not. JMcC 11:28, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

American Law

This article only concerns American law. Could someone discuss how the law treats in loco parentis in other countries?--Gazzster 10:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

The particularly important point is to add British common law, since this is where America takes the concept. 195.92.40.49 14:55, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Unclear passage

"Some universities even insisted that a male and female student sitting on the same chair have at least three feet on the ground at all times." Can anyone explain what this means/is aimed at? Did they mean "bench" instead of chair, or "at the same table"? What kind of mischief could be performed by lifting more than one foot from the ground? 193.175.53.21 (talk) 16:09, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Libraries sua sponte dump i.l.p.

It appears the American Library Association forced local libraries to dump in loco parentis in public libraries. See here for rather extensive talk on the matter. Perhaps something should be added to the main page. --LegitimateAndEvenCompelling (talk) 05:27, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

more stuff on schools

ADD more information on the school, including book banning;. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.109.184.80 (talk) 20:35, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Loco parentis in other countries

What is the status of loco parentis in other countries? Angie Y. (talk) 17:10, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

It exists in Australia, but I am not legally qualified to pronounce on it. 220.244.84.253 (talk) 09:34, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
