[quote=Anonymous]When I was in elementary school, my mom would surprise us in the morning and say, get dressed, we are going to Disneyland today! (We lived in L.A.) It was always May, we never knew which day, and it is one of the fondest childhood memories I have with my mom and sister. We were not a family who took expensive vacations, and really did have to be bleeding out our eyes in order to be kept home from school for a sick day. Except for that one day! Lines were short, crowds were low; all day was spent with mom and little sister. You can probably guess where I fall on this issue. If we lived near Disneyland, I would carry on the tradition. I think doing this during elementary school is fine. I understand the stakes are a little higher in high school, so it would really depend on the schedule and the kid. But I have no real objection to it. [/quote]
