As an administrator, would you have called for the expulsion of my daughter from school when I informed the school that my mother, who was seriously off the rails at the time, might show up at the school and try to withdraw my daughter?

An interesting thought experiment, especially in how you framed it.

Why would it have to be an "administrator?"

What about a parent? Unlike public schools, private schools actually have to listen to parents' concerns about trifling things like student safety.

If I knew some teacher's violently crazy ex might be showing up at my kids' school, you can bet your house the "administrators" would be hearing about it, from me. And that $5K gift to the Annual Fund gets at least an hour of one-to-one facetime with the Headmaster.

Too bad for the public school suckers whose kids are bullied to death and whatnot.

To keep the analogy close to the original story.
