TheOfficialNickPlays in 14 years of school I had one single day off when I was nine because I threw up on the last day of term. That’s the only day I ever had off. If I had a cold i was sent to school and even went in when I had flu once. If you are a generally healthy person, it’s not hard to go in everyday if you power through days when you have minor illnesses like colds

I had illnesses so missed weeks at a time but managed a 4.0 with hard work. They gave a car to the boy who never missed a day for four years at my school. It was like a health privilege award.

Honestly you think your kids don’t love each other but they do even though they never show it to each other because they are not used to saying nice things to each other so we should teach our kids to get used to it and even though they are not used to it deep down their heart they no that they love their sibling and would never want anything to happen to them !

@MBounceLikeTigger 4 года назад

If you’re referring to the sister, autoimmune disease is not contagious. Hepatitis would be transferred through blood and sex only I think so the other kids are safe from getting that from her (doubt they’re having sex or making blood pacts 😂)

@bananalovinggirl9754 4 года назад

MBounceLikeTigger well no I meant the boy. He must have been sick at one point but he still went to school

@MBounceLikeTigger 4 года назад

Yeah i guess you have a point there. Though I think a lot of people take days off from school when they don’t feel well and yet the virus continues to spread. I’m not a doctor 😅 but I think the virus is already contagious before people even know it is so it’s already out there 🤷🏼‍♀️ I did find an article on healthline backing my claim at least in regards to the flu “It may take one to four days after exposure to the influenza virus for symptoms to develop. If you have the flu, you'll be contagious one day before developing symptoms and up to five to seven days after becoming ill. Younger children or people with a weakened immune system may be contagious for longer.”
