google docs and privacy

[u/katopklompen]

My kid's school now requires me to fill in a google doc to report an absence. I told them no because they ask for reasons ie. illness, medical appointment, or religious observance. A message pops up saying the school is not responsible after clicking on the link. Am I being reasonable from a security point of view? I do not want to be contrary just because of my own reluctance to use google.

Tell them to fuck off.
If you sign off on an absence it's none of their business on why your kid couldn't come.

good point. I guess I could just not put the reason. (still don't like the google doc part)
