Soon enough there was not even a trace of the sick child of yesterday , instead we had a prancing monkey, chattering away and dancing about the house.
So I told her " Anush you seem fine - let us go to school."
"No Amma, I am not well enough " she said and promptly did this-
Starting very young I must say. To think I never ever bunked school !! I was really timid. Can't say the same about college though.
Talking of leave, I was amused by a friend who is planning a trip to Malaysia with his family. He is so petrified to ask for leave at his child's school that he is asking for a few days claiming some illness and then planning to extend the leave by a few more days
Couple of questions:
What kind of school is that ? Why intimidate?
What if the child blurts out the truth of the vacation once they are back- u can hardly coach a child to lie?
And we are taking of a child in kindergarten here btw.
And I leave you with this-

and dont we know travel opens children's minds to a million experiences and sensations
lol at Anushka's nautanki!!!
About the school, I sometimes feel that its parents who are overacting and over-reacting. Heck! They should give a piece of their mind to the princi!

btw the hindi version called 'pippi lambemoze' (published by tulika) is being read around here currently. interesting coincidence!
