Not to like...change the subject or anything but they called off school
again tomorrow and this is getting to be just a little bit ridiculous.
He's been in school seven days since December 1st.
They used to make them make the days up but two years ago they passed
this school calendar thing where they no longer have to make the days up
and since that time they call of school for every little thing.
But if your kid has the flu or pneumonia or something don't you dare think
about keeping him home! Argh.
Okay, I'm better now.

I know what you mean. I had a case I worked with at school and home. Most of her issues were environmental (she graduated services a few months ago...a changed kid with a changed family...I am still so proud) but she had a tendency towards melodrama, more so than your average 7 year old. So I showed up to work with her and she was so out of it. She was literally gray. Her mother, the school, everyone said she was making it up and attributed her non-compliance to her usual bad behavior. Plus they were obsessed with attendance. Kids with head injuries on the playground and not even a phone call home kind of obsessed. So I went in and demanded they take her temperature. She had over 103 fever and it turned out to be pneumonia. I don't know about where you are but here attendance factors into a school's rating so they drag the kids in when they are sick only to have them spread their little germs and infect everyone else. It was infuriating, working with the public school system.
