13 year old son complaining all weekend that they don't want to go to school and want a just stay at home and game. There are no major concerns about school other than trying to get him to do homework, usual teen stuff.
Just came down now and said he'd been sick but flushed it away. He's changed his story 3 times now, first there was loads, then oh it was only a little then back again. Hes shown zero signs of being unwell and seemed generally quite shocked when I said it means he needs to go bed and he won't be gaming all of tomorrow. He's now backtracked a bit saying it was just bile and maybe he was over hungry (also not the case as he hadn't long eaten). No one heard him and it doesn't smell of sick.
I personally think he was trying for a day off and thought he could stay at home and spend it on the computer. This isn't the first time he's tried to pull this stunt, but its been a while. Obviously I can't send him to school still.
IABU -hes probably telling the truth, cut him some slack
IANBU - He sounds suspicious and trying for a day off
