...and to get rid of the school attendance certificates they are given?
I am blessed with good health. So are my DC. They often get 100% attendance (and the certificate to prove it) ....DD3 is ill, proper vomiting ill...her first thought is "oh no I won't get 100%.
I am so fed up of school treating attendance like a competition. DS has been very ill in the past (you know...red letter ill, in hospital ill). First thing from school was a call to say he needed to look at his attendance...even though they knew he had been in hospital.
I am sure those with flakey attendance for spurious reasons aren't motivated by an almost unachievable 100% attendance certificate.

to tell my DC good health is a gift, not an achievement?
