I guess you can put me in MYOB camp.
OP, simply put, you would just be reporting them to be an azzhole - as bitterness for your own situation. You have not stated how that child's presence has negatively impacted your DC In fact, I would argue that your DC was POSITIVELY impacted because now DC has at least one good friend at the school. So....you would be reporting the family of your DC's good friend in order to get that child, your DC's good friend, removed from the school. Which would negatively impact your DC in that she would no longer see that friend everyday. Hey, but rules are rules. ![]() |
This (minus the cursing and hostility). Seriously -- you really do not know what may going on this family. Plus -- you got it 2nd hand from a kid -- the full and accurate story you really do not know |

This child and her family's business IS NONE OF OP's or anybody elses business. This is how rumors are spread and reputations are destroyed. MYOB!!! |
If OP reported to the school, and there was a legitimate reason for the situation, would the investigation be over and completed in about 10 minutes? ie, the time it takes to look into the file? Why would the child or family even need to know that a report was ever made?
Report them to the school, OP. |
12:46 - You are an ass****. This is how rumors begin and reputations ruin. If OP reports this "story" ("...friend lives further out and is driven to school..."), I hope it's OP's reputation that is questioned. |
This is fraud. Nevertheless, it's the school's job to investigate it, not the parents' - if for no other reason than that it may negatively impact your kid's friendships and relationships in school. Let the schools do their investigating. |
12:54 Who is going to ruin anyone's reputation?!!!
OP just reports to school - child is being driven from far-out suburb. School says, OK, thanks. OP doesn't mention this to anyone else. Where's the rumor? School (hopefully) investigates and either concludes it's fine or if not, takes action. |
Yea, and I am sure you will feel really good about yourself when your DC comes home upset because her friend was kicked out of the school. |
Yeah, you'd rather incorage your DC to be friends with a child from family that OK with breaking the rules. Are you sure it wouldn't be a bad influence? Or you have similar family values? |
I vote to report them. |
Really? Do you hear how you sound? The kid is a bad influence because her parents wanted to put her in a better school? LMAO!!! You would hurt your child to report an issue that has nothing to do with you personally. "Sally, I know you loved Jen and that she was your best friend at school. But we live in Bethesda and they live in Gaithersburg and the rules say she cannot go to your school. So I know you are upset, but it was Mommy who got Jen kicked out. " Honestly, I hope the DC and the friend find out who told. |
MYOB!!!! |
OP, you should report them. You can simply mail the information to the principal and the operations department at the school system. |
