Totally. In theory it seems like she can have 22 unexcused absences and lots with doctors notes. But they still send official letters and make you feel crappy.

My kiddo is a good kid. She isn’t ditching. She shouldn’t go when she is feeling sick but she must stay if she is contagious.

My kiddo had Covid this year and we missed 8 days for it. Only 4 counted as excused for some reason. We got to 11 days and they sent a warning that seemed so serious. Even though only 4 of those weren’t excused. If we catch it again, and have other colds and sick days, we seem to get close to the allowed days off. It’s stressful. I’m not sending a kid to school with a fever or Covid.

I’m with you. We don’t eat out often. We cook a lot and have gotten pretty good at it. We get disappointed eating out. We spend on quality organic food. Two tweens and two adults.

Yikes. I guess it depends. Also I did have that experience in 2012.

I think the issue is most people don’t decide to become librarians until after college or even grad school. Adding a masters degree is easier.

What qualifications do you have to set these standards? Do you work for the board of education? I still don’t understand what you have against librarians. Overeducated or not, they are overworked and underpaid!

Well everything is harder than engineering. That’s not fair. You can dislike it but librarians are educators.

Everything is more complicated now that it's computerized. It used to be collecting books. Now it's maintaining diverse resources. And that's just a collections standpoint. There's so much more that libraries do and if you understood, you'd understand why there's a need for a Master's degree.

It’s the same way people find contractors and doctors. It’s more challenging to evaluate true

Do you have a local Facebook group? We have a “ladies of my town” and you get to kinda know some people and you can get their teens. There is also a group just for childcare.
If you are looking for college students, ask a person at a local university, to get you an education major.

Yeah but with a pretty big price tag. It’s more expensive than other gyms in my area.
