My child was given a detention today, despite there being a tube strike in London, which has caused travel chaos. They early but were apparently still late: roads are almost at a standstill it seems.
They get very upset by detentions, due to underlying neuro diversity.
Aibu to think that the school shouldn't give these on a strike day for minor lateness?
They usually give them, even if a child is only 1 minute late, but it seems wicked when it is out of their control.
