I'm sorry.

Though I'm not sure I understand why professors would have problems with missing class for a death in the family.

I don't think it's so much that the professors would have a problem with it so much as the class moves very quickly and she'd inevitably become hopelessly lost.

*hugs*

I don't think you're fishing for attention. I lost a grandfather, so I know how you feel.

(Hug) I still have my grand parents. But one of my Aunts died over night too. And another Aunt the same year. There in a better place now. You should be happy of that. you're not fishing for attention, You just need your friennds to help you out.(Hugs) normely i don't hug people alot. But you need it. Don't do any reckless.

I really appreciate this, guys. *hugs all around*
People get ducked points everytime they don't show up (unless they dropped the course). The proffesors stopped caring what happens because of a few far-fecthed stories from students.

I completely understand how you feel. My grandfather was closer to me than I can describe. I still feel a void in my life.

Cheer up. ^^ Things happen, and people are flawed... Take them as they come.

Remember that we're all here if you need emotional support. =D

get a letter from your parents explaining things to them. usually schools are fine with deaths in the family being the reason to have to miss some classes.

i lost my remaining grandpa last year, so yeah. *hugs you too*

I've been through something similar earlier this year.

I can't say much that hasn't been said before. But time does heal.

My condolences on your grandfather.

And yeah, professors can be like that, even when it comes to stuff like this.. My sympathies to that. 🙁

My condolences as well. It's never easy to see a close family member go.

I haven't had that experience myself, but many of my friends have gone through that.

Thanks SO much, guys. Seriously, from the bottom of heart.

My condolences. Yeah not having any grandparents isn't too much fun (my grandfather died in Feburary of 05, and he was my last grandparent). As for not being able to miss class, as said before, it's for your own good. They just don't want yo uto fall behind. Again, not a good experince, but in time it'll get better. Also again, you have my condolences.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you can cope with his loss. And that's pretty annoying with the professors not letting you miss a class.

I haven't lost a grandparent yet, but my grandfather on my dad's side died when my dad was in his twenties.

As for not being able to miss class, as said before, it's for your own good. They just don't want yo uto fall behind.

I know. It's just a little discouraging when they say outright that don't care about your reasons.
And thank you.
