[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 189381, member: 1991"] Susie, I'm glad you sent her to school. After all, from needing to lie flat, she recovered enough to sit up and play computer games, so that was really good. If she has recovered enough to sit up and play games, then she is well enough to sit at a school desk. And she recovered that well without needing any treatment - maybe she just needed to get up and get moving bit. But if she hadn't recovered enough - use our rule. SCHOOL WORK DURING SCHOOL HOURS. What? Computer games? Nope, you do your work. In bed on your back, if you have to. Got a fever? That's nice, here's a cool cloth for your forehead and an analgesic. Keep writing. And Susie, you said, "I am SURE tonight won't be fun. husband is bowling with cowokers and Miss Jess is NOT going to go ride the rides at the county fair. She is also NOT going at all this weekend." Of course Jess can't go - her back sounds very delicate, she needs to stay home and look after herself, so this problem won't happen so much. Jess needs to stay quiet all weekend, maybe do some simple stretch exercises several times a day, do some light housework to see what she can handle. If all she can do is sit, ten she can have a bowl of vegetables and a peeler on her lap and peel vegetables for dinner. Or darn socks. Rides at the county fair sounds like too risky a pastime for a girl whose back has so recently been agonisingly painful! Natural consequences! Marg [/QUOTE]
