O.K. let me sum that up
If I live in america and my kid is a little sick
Like not anything dangerous, just to sick to go to school
I have to
drag my sick child, out of it's bed
dragg it to a pediatrician
sit hours in the waiting room where my kid doesn't necessarely get healthier and also might get all kinds of other illnesses
so I get a piece of paper for teh school
Becasue me just calling in and saying: "My kid is sick and will not come to school today"
is not good enough
But no one noticed that a kid that was not excused from school showed up ... for a whole day ...
Yeah
I deffinitely see how this is about the children and not about controling the parenst :-)
