After walking the kids to school this morning I was just leaving when I saw another kid kick my lad on the knee and make him cry.
My 10 year old lad, in tears, shouted at him "FUDGE OFF!" which to me is completely unacceptable. I walked over to him and told him in no uncertain terms that I would speak to him later about his language and then said to the kicker kid "Look at me...you kick him again and there will be trouble". Then I carried on my way and set off for work.
Anyway, I called school while traveling to work and they said they will investigate what's going on. Now I'm thinking I will be in trouble if the kid perceives I threatened him. Which I didn't. I just meant I would tell the school. Should I worry?
