Have I messed up?

We received a letter saying Ds2 has an after school detention for failure to hand in homework.

DS was adamant that he'd handed it in, so I've emailed the teacher asking if he could possibly check, as DS2 was so certain.

It now transpires that whilst the homework was handed in, it's "possible" that it was a few days late. The letter says the detention is for failure to hand in homework (not for late submission) but to me, being late deserves the detention anyway. I'm that parent aren't I?

No it will simply flag up he was economical with the truth. Bet he doesn't try that again!
