My DD is 12. Always on time for school.
However, yesterday, due to the icy conditions, she arrived at 9am instead of 8.50am.
I had an car accident 4 weeks ago, and since have become a very nervous driver, hence her being late,
I received a letter this morning, from her school saying that as she was late yesterday, she had done a 10min lunchtime detention for arrivng late to school that morning
Im tamping, if she was late regular id understand, but she is never late, the weather was far from ideal, and the fact im still trying to get my driving confidence back,
The letter states, please speak to your daughter regarding this issue. Please contact such and such a person should i wish to discuss the matter further.
The problem is, i don want to discuss it further, as im really upset about it, however, not matter how much we discuss it, the fact she has already done the detention, means even if they do see that this is a one off, and usual circumstances, beyond her control,they cant stop or undo the punishment because she has already done it
AIBU to think they should have discc=ussed it with me first, before discipling her?
