[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 498027, member: 1233"] I hope you called him in sick. in my opinion they are sick and should not be inflicted upon him. It is just sick to think that he should go and be expected to be "fine" when they kicked him out so late in the evening. in my opinion every 24hrs at camp should count as 3 school days - even if they slept the hours should count. How insane is the situation when a 13yo (a time when the brain is not developed enough to have reliably sound judgement) can see the lack of sense in the school's expectations. If the school gives you problems for keeping him home, go on the offensive about how they set him up to fail on the trip and then wanted to set him up for further failure by expecting him to go to school with little sleep and no time to cool down after the problems on the trip. People/systems that treat our kids like this make me truly wish I did have some magic power and could hex them. If MY wishes were horses, these people would be trampled by a stampede and buried in manure. [/QUOTE]
