[quote=Anonymous]The problem is this: studies show that absenteeism can lead to truancy. Mommy's "it's okay to take then day off for sledding" will become your middle/high schoolers "it's okay to go shopping for new sneakers" or "it's okay to hang out with my new girlfriend". Trust me, for your middle/high schooler to be (soon enough!), the new sneakers and the girlfriend will be at least as important as the snow to your elementary schooler. Except, they'll likely be beyond your control at that point. What will be with them, however, are the values you instilled in them early on, when they did listen.[/quote]
