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.”
James said most of his father’s pranks—which have included him offering to keep James in a cardboard box outside school and feed him gruel to make sure he was on-time each day—have gone over well with the staff.
“I think the picture of me in Dubai is the best one yet. It’s very funny,” James said. “As soon as he sent that one in, I knew he had done something as my phone started going crazy with friends telling me how word had got round at school. Everyone thinks he’s hilarious.”
