[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] There needs to be consequences for her not getting up and going to school. A parent should not change their schedule or remind a 15 year old to go to school. I am sure she remembers and is on time to go to parties or out with her friends, right? [/quote] Yes, but the parent is the one who will get in trouble for this behavior, not the kid. I know this because my best friend went through the same thing. Her son kept falling back asleep and missing the bus. If she couldn't find someone to drive him, he missed school. After so many unexcused absences, the attendance officer visited them and my friend was told that if he had any more unexcused absences, the officer was going to file a petition with the juvenile court. They did not live within walking distance of the school, which is one of the reasons why he kept missing the bus. His school started at 9:10 but he had to catch the bus at 7:20. [/quote]
