I don't think I've been over the top but have I?

Basically a parent with a child with covid symptoms has kept one child off but not her youngest (in my son's year). No testing booked etc. But as we all know the mum jungle drums go off about these things. Another parent has spent over 6 hours today explaining to the school what is going on. Unfortunately this seemed to fall on deaf ears. The mother works in a salon so is around people all day. I contacted the salon and told them. She told her employer they had the test but it was negative. Blatant lie, generally I wouldn't care but I don't feel it's right to say oh yes my one child has symptoms but not get the test or self isolate. I'm fully prepared for the backlash from the mother's mafia but now they have to be tested. I just don't think you can go telling people someone potentially has it and do bugger all!

You sound like a nasty piece of work to be honest. You have absolutely no idea what's going on behind the scenes. She's told some people she hasn't been tested, and told others she has been tested. You've chosen to believe the people she told that she hasnt been tested and gone out of your way to affect her livelihood by calling her place of work. What did you hope to achieve by doing that?

Your behaviour is so far beyond the realms of unreasonable and let's face it, a personal attack. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Unreasonable, extreme and anxious yes, a nasty piece of work is also rather extreme!
