    Fact. I once skipped school because my entire year had gotten trashed the night before and I somehow managed to finagle 2 degrees and am working on my PhD What's your school-skipping example that's not as important as the #ClimateStrike?https://twitter.com/DavidCampbell73/status/1106349536199360513 …

    One day away from school will NOT destroy a child’s education. Give me a break. Utter nonsense. #climatestrike

        Another time I pretended to be sick so I could lie on the grass instead of participating in history debating which I can only classify as one of the better decisions of my life

        Skipped school to watch the last day of the last test in the Botham’s Ashes series in 1981 at the Oval. Nothing much happened, either on the day or with my education…

        One time my face was really sunburned to the point that I found it too embarrassing to go to school.

        Took my then 15 year old out of school for 4 weeks to go see the family in England. His teacher said he'd probably learn more in 4 weeks doing that than at school.
