Which ended with me warning the vice principle that if he ever went near or bothered my son again for such nonsense I was going to search HIM with all the subtlety of a jackhammer
I pulled my boy out of school earlier than I would have over an incident involving a playground scrap. I was urgently called to the school because an unfortunate event had just occurred I was told by the school secretary. mentally preparing for the worst and with my heart racing I reach the principal's office to see my boy sitting in a chair looking sheepish and guilty. the principal explains that boy had struck a student and that this was intolerable and that he would need to be suspended. furthermore if there were any additional examples of his violent behavior he would reported to DCF and a social worker would evaluate our family.
I asked my boy to tell me his version, I asked where the other boy was and why he wasn't present in the room. they sent for the other boy and I asked the other boy for his version. the other boy admitted that he had started it. the two boys shook hands thus ending the animosity.
I asked the principal to have a few words with me outside but he refused to step outside at that time. I think the look on my face pretty much conveyed to him what I was about to say. I just couldn't believe that a highly educated school administrator would not take the steps I did to resolve the conflict and prevent further occurance.
I then wrote my councilman who put me in contact with the schoolboard rep for our district and I made a big deal out of the issue especially about the threat to bring DCF into the matter over a school yard scuffle.
we homeschooled all our kids after elementary school anyways so we pulled him out at the end of the school year thus avoiding any further complications with the idiotic and gay mentality of the current educational system.
