"Church Throat"


A Primary worker brought Katherine to me during Sunday School yesterday. Apparently she was complaining of a sore throat. After getting a drink of water, it wasn't any better, so they came to find me. She didn't have any visible symptoms, but I did the responsible thing and brought her home early. She ate a hearty lunch and began to go about her usual business of taking out every single toy in our toy room. I finally said, "Kate, you sure don't seem sick to me." Her response: "I think I had church throat. My throat hurt while I was at church, but now I'm home I feel just fine."


Is there a delicate way to let her Primary teacher know that unless she can produce a fever, hacking cough, mucus, vomit, or blood, she is probably just bored and trying to get out of church?
Some people's kids!
