[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have him stay with the friends and hire a driver to take him to/from school. What is this emergency that isn't death that would require both spouses? It is something to do with visas/immigration?[/quote] Correct. Our lawyer has just flagged an impending issue. I'm thankful it's not a death in the family, but this is a major blow too.[/quote] No sympathy [/quote] Why? You realize that visa rules and regulations are terrifically complex and that hard-working people find themselves in limbo all the time. It can be devastating for families and should not raise near-xenophobic sentiments like the one you're expressing. Same for the poster who disparaged a PP whose mother had died and whose son got points taken off for being absent for a week - that actually should not have happened, because there is an attendance code specifically for "death in the close family". Which a grandparent is. [/quote]
