School Dilemma - Need Opinions/Inputs

[kinyo]

makukuha pa sa pakiusap yan ... special circumstances require special consideration

ipaliwanag lang maige na malaking bagay sa bata ang biyahe nya at yung mga tickets ay hindi biro ang pag-ipon nun

personally, i would keep asking for consideration and if it doesn't work, we'll go with the trip anyway ... the emotional experience of the child during those few days outweighs anything about school ... besides, i seriously doubt the missed exams can cause non-promotion to next grade considering her good performance ... she may lose class standing but not promotion

Hirap ng sitwasyon.

We were in a similar situation a few years ago. I think our firstborn was in Grade4 and our secondborn was in pre-school and both missed a day in school as we were returning from an out-of-town vacation.

I remember that they kept on telling my wife and myself that they missed a day in school, probably because of peer pressure.

Talk to the child first and let her make an unbiased decision. Then, approach the school again, personally, and ask for consideration.

Negotiate, if possible.

IMO, lahat napag-uusapan....

yes, kausapin uli ang school. sabihin din sa class adviser at sa principal na siguradong me pasalubong sila pagbalik ng bata.

sir theveed, di ba puwede re-book ang flight on a later date or after the exam? check with the airline,pagkaka alam ko po, correct me if im wrong, additional $50 ata pag re book ng flight.

its not hard to understand how difficult the situation is for your niece and SIL, as well as for all of you but as early as now, the child IMO should learn to prioritize things.school muna dapat. im not saying spending time with her mother is not important, but the reason why her mother is working abroad is to give her a better future which includes education right?

i say, postpone the vacation after the exam, a day or two wouldnt hurt.

opinion ko lang po.

If the formal channels don't work, try the personal approach. Go there in person and maybe emotions, not reason will prevail.
