Detention

Well..... the word detention has made it's way into the Barfield household. And no it wasn't Alyssa.
I received an email from Trent's teacher that said...... I wanted to tell you about an incident at lunch today.  Another boy in our class was putting green beans and salad dressing in a girl’s milk when she wasn’t looking.  Trent watched him do this and thought it was very funny.  Since the other boy had an eager “audience”, he continued to do it until the poor girl figured it out.  I thought you would want to know, so you could talk to him about how horrible it is to be the one doing the wrong and the one sitting by and watching.
Needless to say when Trent got home that afternoon he was ticked. He had gotten detention for the  incident. We try to teach our kids not to be taddle tells and do what's right. I thought it was just 5th grade boys being 5th grade boys...... He laughed and didn't tell so he got detention...... Not that I totally agree with the situation or outcome but it is what it is... and that's that. He still hasn't fully  gotten over the fact that he got in trouble.
