Locked in a Cage??? Not yet....


SO today I received a phone call that was both hilarious and disturbing at the same time. It was from the child welfare people, which is not a call any parent wants to get. She proceeded to tell me that they recieved a report that we were locking Branson (our 7 year old) in a cage and that he was locked in the cage after church on sunday and left there until monday morning. All I can do is laugh, it's so ridiculous!!!! So upon my further questioning she tells me that Branson told someone at school this. She also told me that she went to the school today to talk to Branson. She asked him what happens at home when he gets into trouble, he told her he gets yelled at and maybe sent to his room but then he makes a sad face and he usually doesn't have to....... lol So it seems he doesn't recieve enough discipline to me! SO thankfully the social worker isn't really buying any of it but she has to come out to the house, inspect it and meet and talk to all the kids. sheeeeezzzzz..... JOhn laughed when I told him but can imagine if there was some over zelious case worker that believed it?!?! Frightening..... This little boy has got to learn there are some signifigant consequences to some of his stories.

That's so funny! I'd say a good night or two in the cage should teach him.

Seems like you handled it well. Branson must be a geneous...maybe a future author of fantasy books
