"Mom I'm not feeling well, can I stay home today?
Has probably been uttered by majority of school age kid once in their life.
It's not something new.
Kids are kids, they play by testing limits. How high they can jump, how fast they can run, how much lie they can get away with.
- ryandrake 3y agoThe whole "parents feel helpless" theme is so weird. When I was a kid in the '80s and didn't want to go to school, my dad plopped me in the car and brought me to school himself. We do the same thing with our kid today. The idea that she can just stay home if she doesn't want to go sounds ridiculous. And calling the police to bring her?? Another poster here put it well: "America is getting weird."
