It is interesting how previous to the ratification of the furlough days it was always TEACHER furlough days they were discussing and folks just didn't seem to pay much attention to the fact that is it ALSO student furlough days.
If I had a child, I'd be teaching them everything I wanted them to know and not depending on the school system to do it for me. Anyone who has a job where their child can work alongside them, it would seem to me to be in the best interests of the child to "apprentice" them so they learn. There are many more places for learning and teaching than just the school system. However, my advice is not valid since my kids have tails so feel free to dis or ignore anything I say regarding kids and their education.
