What do we do here?

My eight year son was took part in a school play / pantomime at the local hippodrome.

It run by a senior school that specialises in the arts , the bigger kids do the show and smaller kids from local junior schools have choir/ chorus parts.

My son and eleven other kids from his class did the backing vocals.

As in ..

It was cute.

Great show, Alfie was buzzing, driving home we were all chattering about how good it was.

He asks his mum if she got a red note from the school or if they rang her.


"No, why would they ring me ?"

'Conor pushed my over and dragged my by the feet, I had to go to first aid, I though my arm was broken'

"What, when was this ?"

' it was just before we were getting on the coach to go to the theatre,I though I was going to miss is because I though my arm was broken'

Im red angly, but I came across calm

Who's Conor ?

He's a boy in my school.

Was he at the hippodrome?

No.

Why wasn't he there ? Was he jealous you were going and he wasn't?

No, he's an older kid, they didn't go.

What years he in?

He's year 6.

What year are you in ?

Year 3

That makes him eleven, Alfies 8.

His mum pipes up.

There have been other incidents, he once held a door shut so Alfie couldn't come out of a room.

He also tells Alfie he's adopted and looks like a frog.

Back to the car, it's half nine last night.

Where does he live?

He lives on Percival, two streets away.

Which house?

We slightly detour , they show me the house.

All the lights are on, it looks busy, lots of kids, two cars.

So I'm guessing there's a Dad.

We drive home.

The three of us are discussing the show and how good it was, but I'm distracted.

I decide we need bread and milk,
I'm off out.

She gives me a look.

I drive around the corner and pull up.

What do I do?

What would you do?

    Much as I'd like to confront the Dad, I think the correct route is to take it up via the School in the first instance.

    A one on one at his property with the Dad has the potential to get very messy, & of course if it got real bad & the Police became involved, you'd be seen as the aggressor.

    Awkward spot.

    Hi Charlie

    I feel your angst - a similar thing happened to my son around that age.
    I went to the home of the lad, father answered the door, I was very polite , him less so, kids copy their surroundings....
    Take it up with school.
