There are plenty of things a parent can do. Some good, some decidedly not so good.
I know people who simply transferred to different schools, because the social stigma they accumulated made being at the current campus unbearable. I know people who showed up to school with bruises, because their parents thought physical abuse was a productive motivator. The parental toolbag has a lot in it.
But when the school campuses are being turned into these ugly, miserable, claustrophobic dungeons, the lengths parents need to go to in order to get kids back in there get longer and longer. Also, there are parents who may look at a campus as so trauma-inducing that they refuse to send their kids back.
Plenty of parents will happily write a sick-letter in or otherwise provide cover for a kid that's going through some shit and can't bare showing up in the classroom again.
You wrote a lot of things that don't relate to my comment. You shouldn't assume that because a student is refusing school that a parent "tolerates" that and hasn't desperately tried many different interventions, in my experience the parents in these situations are at their wit's end, having tried everything they can think of.
At the end of all of these interventions a child may still refuse to go to school and at that point a parent is not really able to just make them go.
how the fuck can you just refuse to go to school my parents would not have tolerated that
Honestly if a student is refusing school there's not much a parent can do, whether they "tolerate" it or not

If you want to go all in, there's CEDU and the Behavioral Modification Boarding Schools.
The kind of place where they literally grab you out of your bed in the middle of the night and drag you into a van.
This is an increasingly common option for parents, particularly wealthy parents, with disobedient kids.
