To laugh or not to Laugh

So this week has been fairly eventful....... Lots to Blog

Yesterday Patrick and Christina arrived home from school and Christina hands me a brown envelope that had been given to her by a teacher at school to give to Perry and I.....

I opened it to discover that it was a letter for Perry and I about the behaviour of Patrick at school.

The first laugh

They obviously did not trust him to bring it home to us, so what better Plan B than to give it to his 'big' sister...... who by the way will take every opporunity to 'tell' on her brother.

The second laugh

Once I read the contents I did not know whether to laugh, cry or just get mad....

And I quote verbatim from the letter:-

*****

'Patrick was involved in a lunchtime incident on Tuesday 6 November where he was seen kissing Georgia on the lips. He has admitted to this involvement and said he was dared to do it as part of a game. he will be on Consequences during Thursday lunchtime along with the other students involved. We are alerting you to this formally as we consider this a serious incident and are sure you would want to know about it. Please feel free to discuss this further with us.
Regards *********** (Teachers Name).

I can understand to a degree that the school is trying to cover themselves on all counts in case some parent gets really upset about these playground goings on but all I could do was laugh... If this is the worst that Patrick is getting up to at school then I am reasonably happy.

Perry on the other hand was very proud of his son..... Kissing the girls already mate....

Patrick's explanation of the incident was that Georgia was the one that was dared to kiss him... And I guess that the only thing that a boy can do is to help in the accomplishing of such a dare.
