My six yeasr old has been ill all night, my wife has meeting all day, so I get to have a day off to look after her, leaving my class to a supply treacher. (Shudder)
So... why do I feel guilty?  :-\

No idea mate, also find it difficult to care :P

My daughter recently celebrated her 20th, and is looking forward to a university exchange semester in the USA.

The older they get, the more you worry about them.

Kids are god's way of punishing us for the best fun you can have without laughing.

Took a day off to care for the little un today, she's been sick all night.  :( . No hesitation. Love my new rĂ´le  as a supply teacher. Pay may not be as good, but lack of teaching responsibility is brilliant!  ;)

When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.
