Kids, are your eyes "red and watery" because of allergies? Maybe a cold? Grieving the death of a loved one? Oh no, it means you're a dirty, pot smokin' teen. SUSPENDED AND TO THE 'SPECIAL' SCHOOL FOR YOU!!!

Same thing happened to me. They made me bring in the obituary to get the absences excused and even though those were the only four days I missed the entire year they still said I had missed too many days to be exempt from my midterms even though I had straight A's (any student Jr or Sr year could exempt out of midterms and finals by having at least a B average and having missed less than two days of school). My one teacher actually told me I wasn't supposed to be there when I showed up for the test.

See, I can understand asking for an obit. (Although a simple google search can turn that up these days.) But why on earth wold you make it more difficult than it needs to be unless this kid has had 8 grandparents die in the last year. (Not that it can't happen. My one friend has 8 grandparents due to divorce/remarriage. Maybe I should up the number...)

also how the hell is it even the school's business in the first place??
