Parody is recognized as legitimate "free speech" under US law/interpretation of the Constitution, and this probably falls in under that category quite easily. My take is that Daddy was making a point both to his son about how the process works, and to the PTO about how the process fails to work. Most successful children's books/movies/etc. appeal to kids at one level and adults at various other levels, and this seems like a brilliant use of that design pattern :~)
