[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how I would have handled that OP, probably either the way you did (including the feeling bad about it later part) or by forcing him to find his own way to school after he missed the bus and forcing him to own up to his teacher that he wasn't prepared for the test. I do think you're getting too much crap from people on this board though. You're human, you did something you're not proud of, odds are your kid will be fine, especially if you address it with him. When I was a kid my mom worked nights and I remember one time I was being a real a$$ in the morning about getting ready for school and she spanked me hard. After school she apologized and said she was so exhausted and just couldn't take it anymore and overreacted. I apologized for being a jerk. I learned the important lesson that sometimes when people are at the end of their rope, you need to give them some slack. [/quote]
