Just kept my kids out of school a couple days for skiing earlier this week. In my opinion, the education that school offers is only a small subset of all the things one can and/or should learn and experience in life. Academics are, of course, important, and we ensure that our kids are among the top of their classes. But there's so much more to life. I feel absolutely zero guilt for playing hookie to expose them to exciting, interesting, challenging, fulfilling experiences.
