[QUOTE="hamlet, post: 433248, member: 11970"] Update: I spoke to difficult child's teacher about the situation. She explained that the misbehavior has been going on for several weeks and involved 6 or 7 students. Nearly all of them received a level one report on Friday, and one got a level II which is even worse. The students had been separated and not allowed to sit together at lunch time because of their goofing off. Somehow they "forgot" what they had been told to do and started sitting together again. The final straw was on Friday and the cafeteria maid followed through with issuing the level one reports. The teacher said that they should have known and taken responsibility not to sit together. The teacher was not happy that I called. She was quite defensive even though I was just requesting information and did not suggest that difficult child should get off the hook. He asked me in the car on the way to school if this meant he would not get an mp3 player and I said yes. I told him we would have to think of something else and work it out another way. I let the matter drop and so did he, so whew! he did not blow up although it was close. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
