I'm assuming you mean there are a maximum number of days they are allowed to be absent per year? We don't have that here, just that if your kid isn't in school and not sick, you get a massive fine. It would be a pretty hard sell to convince them that both of our kids were magically sick at the same time, for 2 or 3 weeks. You can fudge it a bit when it's just a couple of days, but the amount of time we'd need to travel abroad, have a Disney vacation, and then deal with the jet lag after coming back..there's no way they'd not find out. Plus, how do you get your kids not to tell anyone they just spent a week at Disney? If the school finds out, and they are bound to, you'd be in huge huge trouble. It's all well and good if you live in the US where you can pop over on a flight in a couple of hours for a long weekend, but not feasible from here.
