[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With younger kids it’s lack of child care/lack of job flexibility. With older kids (8th grade and up I’d say) it’s the teachers. They are so inflexible with making up work or helping kids get caught up. Kids who are at all serious about academics, or in any advanced classes at all with higher workloads, feel the pressure to show up sick or fall behind. [/quote] This, have a 10th grader miss a week for a cold a couple of times in a semester and see what their grades look like [/quote]
