EB just came home from school, he was all worked up. I was upstairs cleaning my bedroom, so I didn't hear him come in. But I did hear Dot tell him that "You have to tell Mom!" in that tone of voice that kids use when they think that something super bad has happened and if they actually inform a parent someone might die from the resulting explosion (of anger).
I came down the stairs and Dot gave EB a nudge. And then he just sort of sprung a leak and everything tried to come out of him at once. I told him to inhale, then exhale. Now, in a calm and orderly manner, please tell me what has happened.
Well, it seems that this boy at school who has been a problem for EB in
the past, was charging at him today after school. I asked EB if they
were goofing around and EB said "No" that this boy was trying to knock him
over by running at him. EB put his arm up and the boy ended up falling
down onto his backside. This boy just happened to have his cell phone
in his back pocket and it ended up getting broken.
Now EB is all upset, worried that we are going to have to pay for the cell
phone.
No, I'm not paying for the cell phone. EB says it wasn't done on
purpose, that it was an accident because it was in the boys back pocket and
he just happened to fall on it.
But I know this boy's parents will be calling and wanting a strip torn off
of EB's hide. I'm sorry but that is not going to happen.
First of all, it's against the rules for this boy to have a cell phone at
school. This boys parents know this because his Mom is a teacher.
Secondly, it wasn't deliberate. So no, I'm not paying.
I've already called the principal of the school and let her know what's going on, so that way when those parents call she's already got the heads up. Because once again I say, I'm not paying!!
