[QUOTE="Josie, post: 434342, member: 1792"] If you don't excuse his absences, do you think he would go to avoid school consequences? Since he is on the same diet as my daughter, I would talk to him about how eating the wrong thing can make him tired and give him a headache. I had some gluten by mistake at a restaurant one time and ended up sleepy and needing naps for a week or more. As a side note, I could barely figure out how much my share of the bill was. I could calculate it but not remember it long enough to get the money out of my purse. Then, I went home and laid on the couch for most of a week. I would not have wanted to go to school or work either. Not to say it is ok to stay home, but it is a possible source of the problem and is something he can change. My daughter gets the gluten lecture regularly. :-) ETA: I went back and read your post again and see he was up during the night, so maybe the food issue doesn't apply this time at least. Still, when I don't eat gluten, it doesn't matter if I sleep 8 hours or 3, when I get up, I am fine. If I eat gluten, it doesn't matter if I get 10 hours of sleep or 3, I am going to need a nap and feel tired all day. [/QUOTE]
