Me: How did Paolo’s drop-off go today? Did you look for the missing library book?
Sam: I didn’t get a chance to talk to his teacher about the book because she had something to say to me. Apparently, yesterday at lunch Paolo would not sit down and stop shouting until they threatened to call his dad.
Me: Really? Our Paolo?
Sam: Yeah. So after I gave Paolo a talking-to while the teacher watched, I didn’t feel like bringing up the library book.
Me: Wow. I wonder why they threatened to call you. Why wouldn’t they say they were going to call me?
Sam: Because I’m the parent that walks him all the way to the classroom. You just drop him off at the front door like a stray dog.

Yowza. This not taking him to the room thing has really sent shockwaves through your world.
Bah. Hardly a "stray," although it's kind of funny what he said.
Dude, you have no idea. Parenting is a minefield (not to be confused with love, which is a battlefield).
Right you are...love is a battlefield.
