Sorry, But I will not go to school throwing up, with bronchitis, strep throat or any other cold or illness that makes me completely miserable. I would NOT lie about missing school If I did, I wouldn't even bother wasting my school's time, calling or having my parents do so.

If you attend a private school you are pretty much assured sainthood for that

I should think that no one asks you to go to school when you are sick.

Soon enough you'll be out of school and working and YOU WILL GO TO WORK- throwing up, having strep throat, a cold, flu, or any other illness...right now mommy and daddy pay the rent, buy food, and supply you with some of the things you need to go to school.. wait until the bills come with your name on them.

what offends you more, parents lying for their kids or kids lying to their parents so they can stay at home?
