[QUOTE="Shari, post: 346020, member: 1848"] Oh yeah, I laughed! A lot! lol Thank you for the inadvertant giggles! husband told me to ask her mom what her mom beleived. I did. Her mom replied "well, I thought the dates of the missing work was around when she was gone from school, and last week the tutor said all her missed work was made up now". Uh. Ok. That answers the question how??? Do you beleive she missed all this school and all this work? (we're talking 8 different days between assignments missing in 3 classes here...I'd hope a parent would be aware their child missed almost 2 weeks of school in a 5 week time frame...but I digress...) She said "maybe easy child 2/difficult child 3 thinks she missed it, too". Yeah, whatever. Have fun in Disneyland. Those of us here in the real world expect a postcard. So husband told her there was no need to switch weekends. If she was so sick she missed all that school, she didn't need to go with us. Then it was explained to easy child 2/difficult child 3 that she made this bed, enjoy lying in it. Oh, and then I talked to another parent of a 7th grader. She said if assignments are missing, a note goes home for the parent to sign. Hm.... We've caught easy child 2/difficult child 3 forging signatures before. Couple different years, actually. This other parent said the notes stay in the child's file at school. I'm not sure I even want to know. All I'd have to do is take 5 minutes to ask to see the file. Or 5 minutes to email the teachers that had all these missing asssignments and see if these notes were issued and returned...but I'm not sure I want to know the answer. Ya know? [/QUOTE]
