If you are a practicing MD, DO, PsyD., PhD., etc., and are a third party without any dual relationships with your patient (I.e., an obvious conflict of interest), then any patient under your care can receive a recommendation that necessitates an absence or absences. In terms of what qualifies - it doesn't matter because there is no obligation or reason at all that it be divulged. A practitioner would write a note that says 'please excuse Billy for the following dates(s) and time(s).' if further explanation is demanded by a school administrator and any damage or injury (the threshold as what qualifies as either is very low for juveniles) is incurred as a result of disclosure and/or non-disclosure, then obtain legal counsel immediately - cause you just nailed the jackpot...

Is it against the law to take kids out of school it visit family?

The law that matters here is the truancy law. Truancy laws vary from state to state, but most are triggered when a certain number of unexcused absences are reported. Excused absences, such as for illness or religious purposes are not counted. Check with your child's school to find out their policy for excusing absences for visiting family. If it is an unexcused absence, and they are out for the requisite number of days, it may be a legal problem. However, this is unlikely. Most likely, this will only trigger non-legal consequences, dealing directly with the school. The specifics of these consequences will depend on the age of the child, their other absences, the timing of this absence, and school policy.
