Lost youth

Lost youth

I shake my head when I read of kids like this. How can someone not have a day off from school in ten years? Being off school was a part of growing up for me. It was usually when the house was unattended (admittedly she was at the shops buying lucozade, pop, crisps, pies and other special requests I made to make me better), and the old internet porn got hammered.

I think it’s really important to have a good attendance record because I’m more likely to get a good job.”

oh god. what have they done to him

i didnt really mind school me like, but 10 years without a sick day is just plain wrong!

I was partial to the odd fortnight off like, on the basis that i tidied up and helped me mam out.

It was spot on to cos she would go out in the morn and id get up totally tidy everywhere then just sit in me room what was a dump all day and play on the SNES or Amiga, few times others were off we would get pissed n what have ya and i even got caught at Newcastles old Durham training ground once

I had 56% attendance.

if someone broke a collar bone they would not be alowed into school, i broke me leg once and had to be off cos it was a risk incase i fell over or somet. i hit me mate in the balls with me crutches when i finally got back like so i think they must have meant i was the danger

what film is that off???

as if you dont know that

I had a perfect record until I got given a detention in the last week before the summer holidays. No other teachers made anyone do work in that week and the worst thing was that I'd actually done the work. After that I turned into a right little cunt.
