Stop in for a cup of coffee
When my parents went to school they got smacked by the teachers for misbehaving and another whooping when they got home. I got the whoopin's when I got home. Now you can't even tell a kid to sit down and shut up without the parents "My kid would never do that" and the threat of legal action. My ex was a school teacher and the teachers, her friends that I had met, barely stable enough to teach never mind carrying or a crisis.
