[QUOTE="ksm, post: 594751, member: 12511"] When our girls were little - it was always a rule. If you felt sick enough to stay home from school, there was no TV or computer or ipod. They can sleep, read a book, and if they suddenly felt well enough to do things - then they went to school. If they stayed home all day, they didn't get to play with friends when at 3:45 they suddenly felt fine! Even now, that they are older, I will unhook the modem so they can't be on line. I would also call the school and ask for a list of homework and assignments... then they had to work on it if they felt a little better, but not quite up to school. It is tough. I just tried to make being home not as pleasant as they thought it should be. KSM [/QUOTE]
