[QUOTE="klmno, post: 136683, member: 3699"] Ok, Ladies, I woke up this morning in agreement that it has to be reported- well, the additional details- I had already told principal difficult child said that someone was doing this, I just didn't know who. Anyway, I tried to contact principal today but she was in meetings. I have a message left for her to return my call. How do I deal with this re. difficult child, though? I tried to discuss the importance of reporting this last night, but in his difficult child'ness I guess, he doesn't seem to get it. He is only looking at it like this one kid is doing something wrong, with no safety risk to anyone and I really don't think difficult child gets how wrong it is. Right now, it seems like if he finds out I told about this, he will not trust me to talk to me in the future. I don't doubt at all that they CAN handle this without involving difficult child, but we are not on their list to do favors for right now (they know I'm at least considering filing a complaint) so it would not shock me for her to deliberately make sure difficult child knows I reported it- they have discussed things with him in the past RIGHT AFTER I specifically asked them not to. One good thing, difficult child came home with $5 and a pocket full of candy and mints that he'd gotten at school, so I know where that money is going. (Sure is a good thing he doesn't go to school where buying skittles is a major offense, huh?) Thanks for the words of wisdom and support to do the right thing... [/QUOTE]
