They Grounded me for a Month

I graduated in the class of '99 and I must say I was nowhere near as studious as you. I tended to blow off assignments if I didn't feel like doing them, but I have a photographic memory so I always aced my tests without cheating. I never skipped class but that could've been because my very strict father taught Physics at my high school and if I missed class he'd know about it. Besides being lazy and generally not caring much about my education I was not a terrible student. I've never done drugs and didn't start drinking or having sex until after I graduated high school. Since then I spent some time in the military which taught me discipline and I recently started college. I don't think kids are any worse now than they were when we were in school... I knew about a lot of my peers doing the same things you mentioned your students doing, I just didn't do the same things.

I spent my entire last semester of my senior year in the hospital and got exempt from every exam. Since I went to a private school, they just "gave" me my last year based on my GPA. (idiots)\nI broke over half the bones in my body, lost 5 teeth, was blind for 6 months, and had a HUGE piece of toboggan stuck through my leg for at least a week until they could figure out what specialist could get it out.. \nGraduation was just a riot with no friggin teeth. I had so much fun making crass jokes and used ketchup packets to squirt out fake blood, pretending my friends had hit me whenever kids or older people stared at me.\nWait a minute... I still do that..

What is this doing in home schooling?\nHow do you check out of school if you are 'home schooled'\nAre you stuck in school and want to leave?\nUsually the school wants to contact your parents before they let you leave.\nYou could just skip out\n\nHmm. . \nA good excuse? I left the stove on\nI forgot my medication (this one gets a lot of mileage at all stages of life)

i skipped a grade ( 6th) so when i was up to graduation, i was the youngest in my grade by about 7 months. Not fun, but when the youngest kid is the smartest kid, everyone forgets age  :-)

Tough break. No child ever wants to disappoint his/her parents. However, the best thing to do is to confront the issue with them. Choose a time when you know that they aren't already stressed out and gradually explain how this may have happened. Since you seem to be smart in general, this was probably a fluke or an outlier. Most importantly, don't beat down on yourself. It's not the end of the world, even though it may feel like it.

I'm sorry sweetie, but you have to tell the truth.  If someone else gets in trouble for something you did, it could lead to more trouble for you.  Tell your parents and have them go to the school with you, its always better to have someone with you when you confess.  Good luck

rebelling from what their parents told them they could not do...many parents lie to children saying if you do X you will get Y, but really you don't you get something completely different from what your parents told you...You then might lose trust in your parents and make sure what their parents told them is true. Smart students usually consult friends who did that action for advice before entering an action.

1) Miss the bus.\n2) Get lost on the way to school.\n3) Runaway\n4) Get put in prison\n5) Just stop going. When you get in trouble don't worry no one can really make you go or even really punish you.\n6) Get a job that conflicts with school. \n\nand the best answer:\n7) Just skip and when they ask for an excuse tell them why should I give you an excuse. I did i because you can't control me anymore. Pull out some hair and run into the wall as hard as you can. When you wake up rock back and forth while talking to yourself.

In the United States, if the child is under 16 years of age and they are skipping school, that is called Truancy, and it is illegal. For some states it is even up to 18 years old. To find out the law for your state search Truancy Laws of _______ (the blank spot would be the state you live in). Being in a school setting outside of school, like home schooling is acceptable in every state. But the student is still tested monthly, I think, by the local public school system.

Everyone was ditching for senior ditch day. My friend had a car and we were going to go to the local reservoir for a day of tanning to our favorite songs. I packed up all my stuff and was ready to go. Our male friend was going to call me out of school. acting as my dad (who was blind.) He went to the hall phone by the pool and called to tell them he needed to pick me up in front of the school for a dr's appt. The office asked him for his home phone number and he replied, "I'm not sure-I'm blind." Needless to say, they didn't fall for it. I sat around in my second period class wondering why I wasn't getting called for my 'dr's appt' and it never came! I just went about my school day like normal, but missed out on senior ditch day. The next day, all the counselors were telling us that a man was trying to call girls out of class and they thought it was a pervert who was hanging around the school. I never spoke up about it!

hmm tuffy,\nto be honest I think I actually was smarter than my parents on  a lot of things I did a whole lot more then they think I did and never did get caught....UNTIL I got in the real world, after a few tickets and a couple of girlfriends thought I was a total JERK (which I admit I was) I learned real quick about being arrogant or otherwise. I let my kids watch a lot, but they know the REAL reality is at home,\nGood Luck and God Bless
