Cool! This is not the thread for you. Bye!


Why so dismissive? Jeez.


Doesn’t add to the conversation. It’s like asking, “has anyone flown Delta before” and someone piping in, “no, we always travel by Amtra, tut-tut for flying”. Who gives AF, either answer the question or don’t bother chiming in.


Sounds like you’re uncomfortable with anyone disagreeing with you.


No, just tired of people thinking their 2c matters when they can’t stay on topic.


The topic is taking your kids out of school for Disney. How was I off topic?


The topic is asking for experiences with taking the kids out during the school year. No one cares that you’re the mommiest mom to ever mom and follow the school calendar to a tee.


I posted factually. Go after the people calling you all hypocrites and bad parents, rather than me.


Aww, are you upset that you are worthless in this conversation? Shouldn’t you be working right now and not wasting your employer’s time on this site? Since you’re such a rule follower and all.


I’m on vacation. Sitting in the Delta lounge as I type, waiting to board my plane.

It’s a direct response to you accusing me of slagging off work.

I hope the PP found happier ways to spend their vacation time than posting on DCUM!

You: Let’s come up with a short cut!
Everyone: no it’s bad for your kids to miss school. That’s why no one does it.
You: It doesn’t matter.


Also you: I wonder why my kid got arrested for tax evasion. We never taught them that it’s ok to think the rules don’t apply to them.

OP, you’re a crap parent. Grow up.


That’s a totally apt analogy /s

You’re damn right it is. Some people play by the rules. Others are spoiled pricks who don’t. They produce more spoiled pricks who don’t believe the rules apply to them.

Easy solution: don’t teach your kids that the rules don’t apply to them. Our daughter wouldn’t want to miss school for Disney. Because she has a proper respect for authority.

Send your kids to school. It’s the god damn law.


Yes but it’s not against the law to take them out of school for a few days to go on a trip. Even most teachers and admin agree about that. You sound insane comparing this to tax evasion.



Teachers and admin know they can’t control/stop it. That doesn’t mean they support it.

I am a teacher and I support it. I have far bigger fish to fry than a kid missing 3 days of school to go to Disney.

You cared enough to tell me to get back to work.

The oldest still got straight As and ended up in the TPMS magnet, then the Blair magnet. The youngest had straight As and qualified for both middle school magnets, but lost it in the lottery. He expects to get into a HS magnet eventually.

Missing a week in elementary school, especially early in the school year, will not make or break your kid.

However, this does not apply if they're in middle or high school.


Not even remotely the point. But it’s good that your kids are less obtuse than you are.

It’s not about whether they’ll struggle academically. It’s about the message it sends.

Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death.
