“And then she comes home, and I don’t even have time to spend with my kid. I’m making dinner, trying to do homework [with her], and then it’s time for bed,” she added.
LaPalomento’s video caption says, “Mind your business,” but surprisingly, many of her followers shared their support for her parenting practice.“A mental health day off would have done so much good for my hurting brain and heart when I was growing up. This is amazing!” one TikToker exclaimed. “I’m a teacher and I’m not even mad about it. Especially if she’s so little!! Mental health days are super important and let kids be kids!” shared another.Giada spends the day playing instead of going to school.Some were more skeptical of LaPalomento’s decision to take her daughter out of school so often.
“This is nice but don’t most schools only have so many days you can be out without a doctors note?” one wondered.“Honestly I would hate this cause in the schools I went to, the work would just like up and they would teach something important which would mess with my grades making me feel even worse, but I’m so glad she loves it,” enthused a third.
“I know she’s good in school and she gets good grades, and she does all her work so she could stay home for a day. It’s not gonna hurt her,” LaPalomento told “Good Morning America.”
