Is it normal that i feel guilty not going to class when sick?

There are a few days where I'll skip class to catch up on homework. I let my teachers know I won't be in, and go about my studying with no worries. But on days when I actually AM sick (with a migraine, or stomach ache), I force myself to go to class so I don't disappoint my teachers. Is that normal?

    It's normal, I do that very often. Sometimes I just stay home cause I don't feel like going to school, but when I actually am sick I feel guilty about staying home. But it's no problem, as long as you don't skip class too much.

    No because then you potentially get others sick. That is a douchey thing to do. Abusing the system...

      I'm talking "sick" as in terrible migraines, or stomach aches. Not throwing up and hacking lungs everywhere.

        Well, you didn't specify that. But anyway, in that case, it is normal.
