My parents never let me stay home from school. The only times I have been out of school was probably in 1-3. Even if I get the flu, its back to school. They never believe me because I used to fake sick a lot and get out of school. Now, they just say " Don't lie just get ready for school." They don't even check my temperature. They can be very stressing. I never have gotten out of school for a video game. The only good side about video games is I get almost every system I want, but I really have to pay half for the system. I pay for the whole game and controls. My dad also expects me to buy him a game. I say "Ya, that game might be pretty good." He says "Why don't you buy it for us?" and I always say "No." It really gets on my nerves. He just doesn't want to have to pay for it. I wish only to stay home from school just once more, but it is only a dream.
Also, Son Saku, if you are getting the Japanese version of the game, then your better start faking ill about 2 days before you get the game. Your parents most likely will not believe you if you start the day you get the game...
