[quote=Anonymous]We took a holiday trip that required 5 days off in a row. Difficult trip to plan with limited vacation time for parents. Our kids will graduate and do well in life regardless of 9-12 attendance. I always knew it and it is true.The way we support our kids in life gives them a head start school cannot. Older one works already. He does not skip work like he skipped high school. He'd be looking for a new job if he did. The younger kid loves going to school luckily and gets easy A's. He will also take work more seriously. Maybe the pay is a good motivator. I don't give him hard time over school attendance. Missing 30 days of school a year makes no difference. If any, I think I absolutely overdid it. I will never get the time back I spent doing useless homework.[/quote]
