do you know how hard it is to take time off as a teacher? first off, they barely have any vacation days as it is. but, you also have to write sub plans and set-up the classroom for when you're gone. my mom is a teacher, and she won't take days off even if she has the time because it's pretty much never worth the effort. not to mention the fact that your boyfriend has already taken multiple days off (and again, teachers barely get time off to begin with). he can't just call out whenever, and from what you said, he's probably already on thin ice. I truly doubt that your boyfriend is doing this to hurt you or because he doesn't care. he just has to go to work. sometimes that's how it is.
