'WONDER'
In the book Wonder... I think who has the best decision for August is the Mum. Not the Dad.
Why? Because the 10 year old boy August, the son, doesn't want to go to school. The Dad said, let the child decide. If he doesn't want to go to school, he doesn't have to. But the mum said, He has to go to school. And he does.
If he doesn't go to school he won't have a good education and he probably won't get a job when he is older...
If he does go to school and gets a good education he probably will get a job when he is older.
