Runny nose or mild cough? Post nasal drip? They can go to school.

+1. This is what the rule at our school is. I think it’s very reasonable.

Yes, even our school nurses do not require staying home for a runny nose or mild cough.

Sorry, ours requires kids to stay home when sick.

PP here. Yep, ours require kids to stay home with a fever, strep, covid, or other actual illness. If schools required everyone to stay home for a simple runny nose, the classes would be half empty from October through February.

With a great deal of those being colds that get others sick.

Meh. Colds happen during those months. If you want to participate in society you will likely have a cold at some point. If you don’t have a job and don’t care if your kid misses school, then just keep them home if you want to avoid a case of the sniffles.

As a parent you need to plan for these things and use your vacation time if necessary. Don't make everyone else sick because you are too selfish to stay home with your kids.

What do you do for a living?

What does what someone does for a living have to do with a sick child?

Got it. A SAHM.

Actually, I bet you *were* a SAHM. Now you’re just an unemployed bum.

What a way to put down women. You’ve discredited yourself. You’re a bum.

No one on here is so important that they can’t possibly imagine taking a day off. The world does not revolve around you and won’t come to a crashing halt if you are away.

Apparently what one does for a living dictates whether sick children go to school or stay home.

I’d like to know what jobs the PPs have where they can call out for days or weeks without any repercussions. If they’re just housewives with husbands who support them, they can clarify that.

Funny how most of these parents have plenty of time to do vacations and other things which are more important to them than staying home with a sick kid. And, where is the other parent in all this? If these kids have two parents and if those parents cannot take care of their kids, they need to stop having kids and find someone else to care for them.

If you cannot take off of your job that is seemingly would fall apart without you, then you need to find childcare to handle the responsibilities that come with having children.

By all means, let me know what job you or your spouse has that allows you to take off for unscheduled leave every time your kid has a runny nose.

I used to be a sahm and now work FT. My opinion hasn’t changed: I would not keep my child with a runny nose home for weeks. If they feel good and don’t have other symptoms, they are going back.

Both my parents worked and had someone who would take care of us in the event. You just don’t want to pay someone and rather just not deal with it.

Since you are that important, you need to hire a nanny as a back up.

My spouse works for a big tech company and its very flexible. So flexible the kids are still in virtual school. Our priority is our kids. You shouldn't have them if you cannot care for them.
