A child is generally labeled truant if they miss a certain number of days without excuses. Typically, an illness does excuse an absence, and truancy is based on the number of unexcused absences. If your child is chronically ill, its understandable that you may not be notifying the school each day that he/she will miss. If your child is sick enough that they are missing enough school to be considered truant, you should make an appointment to speak with the schools administrators right away. You can talk to them about the illness that is plaguing your child, the amount of time your child can realistically be expected to attend school/work on school work, and a plan for how to keep your child up to date with his/her peers. If the child is chronically hospitalized, you should also speak with hospital staff about alternative education programs. If you are simply allowing your child to stay home sick too much, and not taking the proper route to have the absence excused, you need to consider the long term effect that this is having on your child, and adjust your parenting accordingly.
