Father takes part in school lesson for sick son

The father, Mr Aphee (name transliterated from Thai), told the teacher that his son became ill after having troubles sleeping due to his sprained hand.
He had suffered the injury while playing sepak takraw.
Rather than let his child fall behind in lessons, he showed up at school and asked if he could attend class on his son’s behalf.
The teacher, now acting school principal Ms Maneerat Khiew-ngam, agreed with a smile and even marked the boy as present.
Former student back in class as father
As it turns out, Mr Aphee was once a student of Ms Maneerat.
So when class started, the teacher found herself doing something extraordinary — teaching both her current students and a former student-turned-parent at the same time.
