Just not feeling it

The past couple of weeks I have felt like crap. So to say I'm just not feeling it is putting it mildly. We send our kids to school every day to keep the schools off our backs because they're not there. And yet every day some snot nosed kid, even mine, takes some cold or other illness to school that gets passed around to every other kid there. And then guess what happens! Yup you guessed it; they then bring said cold or illness home to everyone else. I'm sorry, but if your kid says they don't feel well, KEEP THEM HOME. I don't want whatever they may have. And I certainly don't want my children getting it either.

Sending our children to school when they are ill does not make us good parents or neighbors. I know, sharing is caring. Well, I don't want you to care that much about me or my kids. You want to share, then share among your own family and spare the rest of us. And if they want to send the truant officer to your door to ask where little Tommy is; let little Tommy answer the door and share the love with them. Perhaps then they will quit having us sending sick kids to school. And if you're sending your sick child to school just to be a jerk, then shame on you.
