[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 488052"] That is frustrating. difficult child 1 got into trouble at school the afternoon on the last day before Christmas break last year. I didn't find out about it until everyone went back to school after New Years. They actually had the audacity to want to meet with me to discuss punishment. I said, "Why on earth are you waiting until now to tell me this?" Their response was that they were in a hurry to get out of school for break (principal had to catch a flight to France that night) so they weren't able to do anything then. I pointed out that it was not difficult child's fault they didn't deal with it and that it would not be fair to punish him after this ,uch time because he honestly wouldn't be able to tell you what happened back then to begin with. It was the ONLY time they got tongue-tied and dropped it. I would say the same thing to your sd. "You told me he was going to be in OCS on Monday and YOU didn't follow through so I refuse to let you punish him because YOU didn't follow through. YOU said Monday, well, Monday is over." Period. Good luck. I would love to hear what response they manage to put together to try to justify delaying it. [/QUOTE]
