[quote=Anonymous]I would approach it less combatively. DH should apologize for being "confrontational" before, and agree that what happens on her time is her choice, then he should point out that missing X number of days a semester can result in Y disciplinary action, and isn't it just best if we all have all the information. You both need to let go of controlling how she handles school attendance/prioritization. Don't get me wrong. I agree with your position, and I wouldn't allow my kids to skip, but parents in blended families don't have the luxury of controlling their kid's world. They have to share control with someone they may often disagree with. You both need to focus on making her comfortable sharing with you, since you have no chance of correcting for mistakes you don't know about.[/quote]
