A father of a middle school in England sent a brilliant response when the school asked him to send a text explaining why the student was absent.

Simon Morgan and his wife Clarie removed their 15-year-old son James from classes when they decided to take a quick vacation on March 3.

Morgan, 43, received a text from the Stanwell School in South Wales, which said: “James Morgan was absent from AM registration. Please can you TEXT a reply with the reason for this absence. Thanks Stanwell School.”

Morgan replied with a picture of James standing in front of the luxurious Dubai hotel Burj Al-arab.
