Detention girl DID show up on Thursday! I think it helped that I e-mailed the cheerleading coach, who backed me 100%. Boo-yeah! BUT...I get a note from the secretary on Friday: Detention girl's parents let her quit!!! Over a 15-minute detention!
Okay seriously?! What kind of precedent are you setting for this kid?! You're teaching her that the rules shouldn't apply to her and that she can whine her way out of a situation. Boo bad parenting! Even worse, in a society where no one wants to take responsibility for their actions, the parents are simply reinforcing that behavior. Someday, it will all blow up in her face, though. Mom and Dad won't always be there to bail her out.
In conclusion, we need more 3-day weekends. That is all.
