I am not pretending to speak for adinva, but my own thought is that if you both already agreed that it's fine for your children to miss a day of school for this event, then that wouldn't change because the status of your attendance changes.

As I said before, I don't have kids yet, so feel free to ignore me on this, but I think PM has the right idea here as far as DBing is concerned. Unless there's concern for the kids' safety, it's probably okay to just let this one go.
