Just asking...

Is it wrong to keep your child home from school when the teacher has been absent for 2 weeks and the sub just yells at them all day? 

Tell me what you think.  Really.

I don't have kids in school yet, but I think I would do the same. Most of the time when subs come, it's a pointless school day. 2 weeks is a long time for a sub.

Keep her home. With a sub, especially one who's yelling at them all day, she's probably not doing any real learning anyhow.

Oh girl....I just have issues with this country's public schools in general! I don't even know where to start! More power to ya for keeping them at home!

If all she is experiencing is some adult yelling the entire day. Home is a much better place for her to be.

BTW, I love the lay out of your blog.

Any day with a substitute is a waste of time, whereas any day spent with the family is time well spent. Although I think one must admit that the substitutes have it hard.

I keep mine home all the time :)

um...I don't think it is hard to guess my answer to this one.

I think a discussion with the principal is in order. Obviously if the sub is not working out then they need to get another one in there.

I've been both a teacher and a substitute teacher. Trust me, sub days are wasted days.
