@end3of6days9 When my daughter was 5, a boy said if she didn’t break up with her bf and be his gf then he would bring a knife to school & stab them. The school refused to do anything. They said “Boys will be boys.” I pushed. His parents were both lawyers. I was a single mom. They won.
@ThrillaRilla369 Yes, I would rather he bring them in and watch over them than have than walk into the men’s restroom and see men at urinals. 100%. I would have helped a dad, not yelled at him.
