Someone at the school would be in for it, if it was my five year old.
I bet they would.
However, my parents would have said, “If you don’t like the punishment, mind your teacher”. But that was why kids use to mind back then.
Me too. Some of the comments here are disgusting.
Hubby and I would probably be a bit miffed as well though our current five year old can be a bit of a pain. Really. His teacher seems to “get” him though, so maybe he will avoid the closet or potty room or wherever might be a place to put a little monster child. I was at the school recently, and I took the sweet little five year olds to lunch. When we were lined up in the hallway returning to the classroom, some of the children were leaning against the wall and a janitor’s closet door. The teacher walked up and noticed these children leaning on the janitor’s closet door, and she told them they should not do that because the door might open and they would fall inside. The boys looked at each other and got a look of fear. They said, “oh, don’t lean on that door. The Mop Monster might come out and get you!” I looked at the teacher who looked just a tad guilty. She nodded at them, looked at me, and said, “They have vivid imaginations at this age.”
I deserved it as much. I was a bad boy.
