Yesterday ds (10) took toy into school (I know he shouldn't, hopefully he'll now learn...) Complicated by the fact I work in same school.
several kids have this toy and playing at break. so he takes his in to join in. During sport, he puts it down on the side. Teacher sees it (but doesn't take it or tell him to put it away, or tell him off for having it), next thing is, it's gone.
A few kids say they spotted another boy from the class take it. This boy is later frantically trying to hide his sports bag. Teacher calls him into class, and lo and behold, the toy is in the other boy's bag. He admits he took it.
So, today, my ds gets sent to the headmaster's office and is spoken to about breaking the rules taking things into school. and he has to write out a punishment card, which goes on his file where he has to write he has broken the rule about taking stuff into school. I have to sign it.
Thing is, several kids have this toy, even today. The only difference bwn them and my ds is that my ds was stolen from. AIBU to be annoyed it feels like he is in effect being punished for being targeted and stolen from? None of the other kids have been punished, in fact, they were all playing with the same toy in school today, day after the theft.
Do I swallow it, as he was in the wrong by taking the toy to school, or do I speak to his class teacher for sending him to the head, or do I speak to the head, as he spoke to him??
AIBU?
to be pissed off ds gets sent to headmaster (for bringing in toy) because someone stole off him
