As a mom, I know you're very upset and worry about this but your son needs to resolve this on his own. That's how they learn to handle the "tough" lessons in life.
I worked with elementary school kids all the way up to high school kids. I've seen kids who bumped into the slightest problems and they didn't know how to solve it. They simply turn around and look at their parents for help. That's one of my biggest pet-peeves. Parents should TEACH their kids the "how to's" instead of just doing it for them. |
I do agree! I have also worked in school systems.......and if the above fails, I would talk to some of the other parents of seniors that were kicked off (if it's ok with your son) and if everyone agrees about how unfair this situation is.....go see the principal. This is so unfair to those senior boys, I just can't believe it. Good Luck and Hang in There.........
