I believe this was a very unusual year for days off and that is why it is a touchy subject. We have NOT had such a harsh winter in many, many years and we have NOT had so many snow days off in a very, very long time. It seems to parents that kids were more at home than they were in school this year and parents are really fed up. For working parents it was very difficult to cover child care, for parents at home, sometimes they went crazy not being able to handle bored and snowbound shut-in kids who had so much energy and nothing to do with it. So, vacation days and having kids under foot is a very touchy subject this particular year.
