[quote=Anonymous]Since it's actually impacting her grades I would definitely try to cut down on the absences. I'm pretty permissive with my kids in this regard, and I give them a lot of leeway to determine their own sick days, but only if they are managing their absences carefully and they are carrying all A's. If one of those conditions started to slip, I would crack down and come up with a stricter policy. I would suggest you seek a fell physical from her physician, and consider whether you might need to look into her mental health and the anxiety possibility. If neither of those turns up anything, I would go with a rule where she can only stay home with a fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and possibly feminine issues if her time of the month is particularly bad.
