[QUOTE="stuck, post: 336342, member: 8874"] Hello everyone I'm new here so bear with me.I need some advice about my son being suspended from school for telling a student he did something to another students water bottle,(said he put his penis in it) which he didn't actually do, and he also told the student whose water bottle it was, that he was just joking. I realize this "joke" is very inappropriate but a 10 day suspension? And a month ago he was suspended for 3 days because he and a few of his classmates made a joke about spitting on a girl.(They never said anything directly to the girl, it was only talked about between these boys)Again, I know it was inappropriate to joke about such things. Then while my son was in the principals office one of the boys actually did spit on the girl and my son got suspended.He was not even in the vicinity when it occured, he was with the principal.
