Glad my son will not be in school anyways, otherwise I might borrow this from you. ;)

Have your kids play solitaire on their laptops. Works for Dems in the legislature.
Keeping a child out of school is your choice. It may not have the effects you intend. When your son/daughter has to explain why they stayed home, they may be embarrassed and put on the spot. The teacher and fellow students could make them feel silly.
I bet that President Obama’s speech will be something President Bush could have said — benign — since it will be watched nationwide. If there is widespread antagonism to his speech and his speech turns out to be something along the lines of a Bill Cosby speech, it actually could be favorable to President Obama. The public may think that opposition to everything Pres Obama does is overboard.
Pick your battles or you may lose the war.
Send the kids to school...with omama Joker Shirts on!! Peaceful protest.
Just another example of Obama the Narcissist getting his rocks off
I have emailed my children’s principals to find out if they are planning on participating. I haven’t heard back from them yet. In our area, this would not be popular, so I’m guessing they will not. I am prepared to keep my kids home, however, if they surprise me.
Dear Principal,
Just a note to let you know that my son’s absence from school yesterday was quite necessary. He had begun slicing his drives and pulling his mid-irons. We spent some important teaching/learning time on the Country Club driving range and later played 9 holes. You’ll be happy to know that this condition seems to have stabilized, as he hit 7 greens in regulation. Ah, but his putting!! We are looking forward to our acting-President’s next school time address to students.
Regards,
Dad
I’ve written to our district superintendent and the principal of my son’s school asking if they will be required to watch. I’m going to give the district the benefit of the doubt and give them the opportunity to opt out. If they don’t, I go to the school board.
My point was that my child, his teachers and his parents are the best (and only) people to make determinations or pronouncements about his education. Considering that education is not Constitutionally a Federal matter, I think I’m right in saying so.
Pingarooo...
My daughters are skipping Tuesday...
