Am I right to be fuming that my 12yr old was left unsupervised in a market place long enough to buy a bb gun! I knows they done wrong and I am not excusing my childs behaviour, I asked him what they were thinking and they said loads of other children on the trip bought them. What shocks me is this was on a day trip to france and on the return to the coach the teacher had asked the children if they had anything that they felt they shouldn't have and a few kids handed in bb guns. The teacher did not supervise them around the open market and who knows how many kids bought weapons, there were also knives readily available my child tells me. I'm really concerned that there was no supervision to prevent this from happening, and why, after having evidence that weapons had been purchased did the teacher not check all students thoroughly, they went through french customs with these weapons! I was not at the school to collect my child but I have not been contacted by the school to warn that the children may have purchased weapons. So my question is what do I do now? I know my child has to shoulder alot of the blame but I am very concerned at the lack of supervision and the failure to warn parents of the possibility that they have purchased a weapon. There could well be yr 7s wondering the halls tomorrow with bb guns and knives. Advice please.
