I got a call from my young son‘s principal last week. She said there had been an incident in the playground where students were disrespecting a supervision aid. When my son came home, I mentioned that the principal had called. He said, “Can I just say that I wasn’t one of the kids glueing black felt to my forehead to make it look like Ms. V’s giant mono brow?“ “Okay,” I replied, “So what were you doing?” “I put some felt on my upper lip and was walking around pretending to be a French-Canadian Hitler.” To which I said, “A piece of advice … Any excuse which involves you pretending to be Hitler isn’t likely to be considered much of an excuse at all.“
