i hated going to school when i was a kid and i still even now - but not so much as before. i used to come up with many excuses to stay home, like having a headache or stomachache, but my mother always caught me lying. when i went to school, i always ducked into a playground. i stopped lying when i grew up. i'd talk to my parents directly when i didn't want to go to school. i'm so lucky that they understood me and they just warned me not to get other people into trouble through my own actions. however, getting permission from my parents didn't mean i could leave school forever. i still have to work hard for good grades as freedom comes with responsibility.
