Kailey had a tummy bug over the weekend. She was sick... yes she was. But now? Not so much... she's faking. I'm sure of it. We let her stay home this morning with a decision that she may make it to school for a half day. Sticking by the rules, she won't be truly '24hr fever free' until about 11:30a. I'm not sure what to do with a faker.
This is uncharted Mommy territory for me. I mean, I'm all for mental health days but the girl has missed her fair share of days this year with H1N1 and strep. If she truly was sick I'd re-think, but to sit around, watch tv and be glued by my side? I don't think so... still, there's this nagging mommy thing. You know... the back of your brain thing when you child does something a bit out of character and something in you says 'there's a reason and you need to listen'... well, my bell's a ringin'.
What to do.... what to do. What do YOU do?
