[quote=Anonymous]Don’t lie. I was a swimmer and missed so much school one year that the school sent a letter saying if I missed any more days I wouldn’t pass the grade. I think that was freshman year of high school. It is what it is - I was good enough to be recruited by top colleges (including Harvard) despite not so great grades. You and your child have to decide about priorities but do not teach your kid to be dishonest by feigning illness. I’m not sure I would choose the path I took for my own children but it worked out for me.[/quote]
