School suspends a 5-year-old for fighting. Dad gets called in. Expecting him to apologize, punish his son, and play the good little parent. Instead the dad listens to his son: “This kid was picking on me at recess. I asked him to stop. He didn’t.” Then the dad turns to the principal and says what every father in America has been thinking: “So you don’t even know what the bully was doing to my kid… but you’re suspending MY son for ending it?” He looks at the bully kid and says: “You gonna think twice before you bully my son again.” Then he turns to his boy, gives him knuckles right there in the office in front of the principal, assistant principal, counselor, and nurse: “Son, I’m proud of you. You ain’t suspended. You got a three-day vacation. It’s hunting season. Let’s go.” Zero tolerance policies are a joke. They only tolerate one thing: kids who won’t defend themselves. This dad just reminded every weak administrator in America what real parenting looks like. Raise men. Not victims.
