[quote=Anonymous]Wait until they're in middle school and high school. I have to threaten punishment for my one kid because missing just one day puts him so far behind in classwork. Also, the teachers are less likely to work with kids who miss school in HS than in middle school and elementary school. I also have to watch him like a hawk for the signs of him getting sick or being sick because he'll hide them. My middle son missed a week with the flu and I couldn't believe how mean his teachers were about him making up the work. The rule in our district is a kid gets the same amount of days they were out to make up the work. His AP History teacher had assigned them group work while he was out and since he didn't get assigned to a group, he had to do it all alone and the teacher still wanted it turned in on the same day as the rest of the classes work.
