[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No I agree with OP. The teacher should just keep a bucket next to her to vomit right there in the room so OP's snowflake's education isn't "disrupted."[/quote]

Lol!  I teach in MD and have a chronic condition that causes (among other symptoms) frequent vomiting. I was at a school with parents notorious for harassing teachers and admin over staff absences. I really tried to tough out the first year after diagnosis. My strategy was lots of Zofran and not eating after 8 pm the night before but sometimes the nausea got the better of me and I had to miss first period. I LOL'd because I was teaching an AP Course and a parent actually suggested I keep a stack of air sickness bags in my desk instead of vomiting in the comfort of my own bathroom. When I balked, she complained above my principal. The admin suggested I take a leave of absence for short term disability. I did. Ironically, the LTS that was hired was not certified in the subject area and took off for a few days before the AP exams, leaving a short term sub in his place.[/quote]
