[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 131403, member: 831"] Do nothing about the letter(I'm wondering how husband got a hold of it). The Dad is angry. That's his right. As a parent whose child has been victimized by other students, I do understand where he's coming from. He's venting his frustration with the "system" because the only way to know if your son received any consequences is through the student grapevine. However, there is not a darn thing that can be done about it. It's confidential. Period. I know it's embarrassing. Son got suspended this year for stabbing a kid with a pencil in the eye. The kid was cursing at him in Spanish and wouldn't stop. Son turned to stab at him to stop and nailed him. Luckily, the kid was not seriously hurt. Son only got one day suspension because he doesn't have a prior record and HE TURNED HIMSELF IN AND CONFESSED. I felt horrible about the other child and expressed that to the VP when I spoke with her on the phone. Then, I learned later through the student grapevine that the cursing student was suspended for two days for disrupting class, cursing, and hitting other student. Put the letter away and keep it in case you can use it for difficult child's benefit. [/QUOTE]
