Just curious.
I know this sounds bad, but I started skipping college, my attendance was so poor the principal called me to her office and demanded an explanation. I didn't know what else to say so I told her my father died and that I was grieving. My father is a deadbeat and emotionally he is dead to me. Last year he just abandoned me and ignores me since he got a new girlfriend.
Anyway, the principal said she understood and that I could have a week off to grieve. She said that I had to explain to my teachers that my assignments would be late. I also had to go and ask for the new assignments. The thought of tracking down six teachers and talking to authority figures was enough to keep me away forever. I didn't go back. I felt bad for lying because the principal was so nice about it.
