I typically try to take annual leave and to travel exactly on the opposite dates to what this tool recommends. That's because I care more about avoiding the significant extra expense, traffic, and crowds of travel over public holiday periods, than I do about getting a few extra "free days" of leave. No free lunch!

If kids are performing academically there isn’t much grounds for the school to stand on.
If I am driving 200 km/h but did not have an accident there isn't much grounds for police to fine me. Law is not optional.

Yeah, that doesn't work in a lot of countries. I can be assertive all I want, but if I pull my child out of school without permission, I risk getting a call from the local child protection services and/or getting fined.
_Whose_ permission is needed? You're their parent , that's all the "permissions" needed.

Parent (heh) means they have no choice but to plan their holidays during the days off in the school roster. Tools like these are pretty much pointless if you can take a day off from work, but your kid is required to show up in school.
> if you can take a day off from work, but your kid is required to show up in school. Sounds like a real day off, though. ;)
