I’m sure everyone has done something really stupid before as a parent, but I think this has to be the stupidest thing I’ve ever done. My DS came skipping out of school yesterday telling me how he wanted to make some tickets for the show was doing with his friend at playtime.
He said it was going to be a pretend wrestling show (alarm bell did not ring at wrestling show) and him and his friend had done a script and they.
He had his first drama lesson the other day so I thought he must be wanting to put a show on. He started making some tickets after school yesterday but said he’d not made enough.
So I offered to help him and we made some tickets and printed them off to hand out. He said he wanted to call it the (name) & (name) fight show.
Why oh why did that not ring a bell in my head I’ll never know. So I have proceeded to print off “fight show” tickets for my 8yr old to take to school to hand out to his little friends because he couldn’t wait to do his “show”.
I get a call at 11am from the School safeguarding officer telling me we cannot promote violence in school and she has personally had to go round the whole school collecting the tickets back from the pupils.
Like I completely get it and I genuinely cannot believe that my stupid brain allowed me to send my son into school with tickets saying that. I feel like the worst mum ever 😩 I nearly started a royal rumble in my son’s playground. Anyway. Just thought I’d share my stupidity on this Friday afternoon. Hope you all have a lovely weekend. From the stupidest mum of the day x
