DW used to get them right regular. she worked at what I called "The Germ Factory" aka elementary school. regardless she would miss days every year down so sick she couldn't get out of bed.
parenting is unbelievable now-a-days. kids getting off the bus vomiting right at the curb - sick as a dog, call parent, "oh yeah he's been sick for three days, but I had an appointment to get my nails done so I had to send him to school."
can't afford to feed the kid breakfast; pulls up to pickup the kid after school in the 2016 BMW535. the staff doing bus duty have to make a list of who is picking up who -
"Ma'am you can't smoke on school property"
"git out'o my face I'm in my car and I can smoke!"
more than once the principal had to call police to have them removed.... then they file a civil complaint because no body was at the bus stop to meet their kid while the parent is being detained by police....
