I have to go swimming soon but I'm on my period. My teacher gets mad if u don't have a note. I don't want to write the reason cause he's a guy and my dad has to write it. What can I get him To write ?

I would suggest you write a not to have your father sign. it would go something like this:
Dear Mr.__________
Please excuse my daughter _______ from swim class for the next seven days.
Thank you
MR. ________
I'm sure your teacher will understand from this note why you need to be excused without actually having to use the words.
I again urge you to become less embarrassed about the different functions of your body. In today's world with sex education being taught in school we have all become very familiar with the different functions of both the male and female body.
All married men become very familiar with the menstrual cycles of their wives and eventually their daughters. You may not announce your period has arrived but there are little tell tale signs someone close to you like a parent picks up on. There is also the evidence from the wrappers for you sanitary protection wrappers left in the bathroom. These are the things parents pick up on so that they don't have to ask their daughters if they have gotten their period for this month yet.
I may have just given away a parental secret, although for what I believe is a good reason. There are somethings in life that we can do that we will find embarrassing. When it comes to natural body functions we all have them and we should never be embarrassed by them as it is part of life. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
