@goosehd looks like you got to the root of the problem. If mom doesn’t think the language and behaviour was unacceptable, then it makes you wonder about the home environment.

@goosehd it sucks man.. for sure this can’t be allowed.. as father of 2 girls i can only imagine how my reaction would be. Also thanks for sharing some of your history about they were bullying you, shows some power imo. In the end a parent would do everything to protect it’s child and it seems like the mother is ‘protecting’ by saying things are taken out of proportion wich is clearly not the case. I would def take it to a higher principal. Of it’s not only for your kiddo then maybe for a next one. Everyone has another look on ‘normal’ but violent behavior or excessive use of cruel language isn’t normal. I hope things will work out in the end! Have a good weekend for you and your family.

As I see it, that’s the ONLY way to deal with a bully. I could be wrong.
Over to our overseas bullying correspondent…

I wonder if airlines and airports have weekly meetings on how to make travel more difficult and frustrating. Every time I do everything right, the electronics in the bags are packed correctly, liquids in the right containers and bags, we still end up getting wrong.
Congratulations to those in charge making something fairly simple and what used to be fun, a semi what miserable experience.

…and a special thanks to the staff whose job is to check if your bag fits into the metal rack torture device to see if your bag will fit in the overhead bin.
My wife and I have identical bags and he was positive my bag wouldn’t fit. After I showed him mine would, he did the same thing for my wife’s bag. Meanwhile I think I saw someone pushing a chesterfield (sofa/couch) past us…

It already has and boarding to commence shortly. Just a rant about the status of life and the idiocy of a simple event that we all deal with time to time.
I think you could go through security with speedos, flip flops, and zero luggage and they would still find a reason to stop you.

Thank you gentlemen for the laugh, smiles, and commiserations. Sitting on the plane and see you in a few hours.
Best of behaviour or I’ll sic the crew on you. You don’t want to see all of the Adams and Alexes angry…

Fucking local drug dealers are using my doorstep as a pick-up and drop-off point for one of their number again. Thought we'd seen the last of them after we reported a suspect vehicle parked next to my house last year, which turned out to be stolen, and led to a police chase when the police turned up to seize it just as the dealers were getting back into it.
I don't particularly give a monkey's about the drug-dealing per se - they've never bothered anyone in our neighbourhood - but there's clearly a reason they don't want to park at one of their own houses, and I'd rather a rival gang didn't spot the car, put two and two together to reach five, and conclude that me or my neighbours are their rivals.
