Whilst I agree with most of the rest of what you wrote, I have to pick you
up on this. "Couldn't get more time off" is not a good enough reason to go
to A&E. That's neither an accident nor an emergency. You are entitled to
time off work to take a child to a doctor when they need to go (

and anyway, this 'lad' was probably 16 at least.
