I guess the question to the teacher would be, "Do you have a problem with my son taking off the first two days of school, or do you have a problem with him taking that time off because he spent it hunting(very successfully)?". . .. . . If it is the first part, then he may have a point (not in my book, but according to some), if it is the second then tell him to F off and go eat his soyburger and tofurkey. . .. . . .
