[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's killing me is the lack of flexibility. My kids just can't stop getting sick. They're old enough that they could nap/watch TV (they're lethargic while sick) and I could telework.

Instead, I'm just taking full days of leave. Work is piled sky high at work due to this and also because so many people quit. Unsustainable. [/quote]

Man Up. My Mom had a job, my wife's mom had a job. We went to school sick all the time. I dont recall a single time my Mom or Dad took off cause I was sick.

I do recall once the nurse called my Mom at work and said there is a problem as I am sick, my Mom said sounds like your problem.

No school is OK with this in 2025.[/quote]

I teach in a Title 1 school and many parents don't answer calls from school. The sick kid is returned to the classroom until dismissal. It happens nearly every week in my grade level.[/quote]

Your school needs to keep them isolated.  Not ok you do that and make the rest of us sick.[/quote]

I agree but the "nurse" will not allow students to stay in her office due to "privacy concerns." She said that students come in to take meds and students might overhear medical details about other students. If nobody is on their way to pick the student up, they send them back to class. We've complained but nothing has ever been done.[/quote]

At my kid's school you need to put down multiple people who can pick up.  Say they call mom and she doesn't pick up. then they call dad, grandma, a neighbor.  Basically I had to give multiple names who would pick up your child if sick/needed to.

One child's parents didn't pick up  (typical they both would not answer and are wealthy and have a nanny) and the nurse finally send the kid back with a mask on.  Then the nurse wrote an email to the parents saying it cannot happen again and they must send over 2 other adults who know and have permission to pick up.  Kid got sick again and someone picked the kid up.  My kids are at a Title 1 school too.  [/quote]
