Would you let your elementary age child be late to school once a month?
My son is 8 years old and in 2nd grade. We live on a military base and every month they hold a free “fun run” 5k.
Last month my son saw the flyer for a st Patricks day fun run in the base magazine and begged us to take him. Problem was it was a Wednesday morning. My husband took him to the run and he was ~10 minutes late to school. Well this months magazine showed up today and another flyer for a fun run for earth day, again on a school day. He loved the last fun run. Do you think it’s okay to take him to these runs and be late to school? He’s never late any other days and rarely missing school (only if he is sick). #relationships source
