What a shame!

It's your kid, said kid has your permission, that should be good enough! If they're going to be a pain about it, just call her in sick. ;)<BR/><BR/>2) This smacks of infringement of civil liberties. Tell them you have a right to exercise your freedom of family.<BR/><BR/>3) So what? That means if your child was attending a <I>funeral</I>, that's excusable?? But visiting living and, presumably, healthy family is not justified?? *shakes head* What is this world coming to....Tigriswillreignhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12345334720599883081noreply@blogger.com
