[quote=Anonymous]I think for a kid who is really motivated, a leader, involved in a lot of things, has a challenging workload, has strong grades, is generally happy- the *occasional* mental health day is fine, and a student like this really doesn't want to miss school anyway. I think they put a tremendous amount of pressure on these kids. The teachers, the admins, the coaches, the directors- and treat them like they are doing nothing else but their own thing which is asinine. They expect more out of kids than they do adults. So, as the parent, I am fine with saying- no you're just staying in your family home today, resting your body and your mind- and that's that. [/quote]
