I have sent my children to school sick many times this year with a contagious cold, because I did not need to get a doctors note...I knew it was a cold. A cold can not be treated with prescription medication, therefore it must just run its course. I feel like I have to choose between compassion for my child and the schools possible discipline. A parents' note should be enough to excuse a child from being late, sick, or funeral attendance, as most parents have their child's best interest at heart.
