Fiona (the 3rd grade victim of circumstance and neglect):
Made sure the ENTIRE school office heard loud and clear how "Mommy LIED! You PROMISED to pick me us up early from school today!"
Mom (“Defense Attorney”):
Was ACTUALLY early to pick up kids from school BUT was unexpectedly pulled into the Principal's office to handle a matter involving another child who we shall here refer to as "The Accused.”
Poppy (The Rogue kindergartner, and bike safety re-offender):
Got her bike impounded at the local "bike jail" after being issued multiple warnings to not ride in the street.
Nugget (1st grade victim of bad luck and bribery):
1. Got a horrible lopsided haircut
2. Was persuaded by "The Accused” to clean up the cat barf in exchange for friendship
7th grade Max (Aka: "The Accused):
Was detained in the Principal's office surrounded by an outraged teacher, school staff, an accomplice, witnesses and Mother (Counsel for the Accused) for (allegedly) accepting a $10.00 US bank note to verify if the teacher's hair was a wig.
Counsel for the accused is still awaiting discovery. In the United States, a person is considered innocent until proven guilty.
