The new owners a bit green, so I asked him directly, and he mustn't be in on the ruse, because he told me exactly what I'd assumed for years. Turns out we're paying way more for way less than we can from elsewhere.
Goneski!

I think you should have been told straight away, she would expect to be informed
THIS
Yeah mate, poor lad has been shitting himself all holidays waiting for me to find out.
He still doesn't know that I know, I'm picking up from volleyball practice this arvo to take him straight to footy training, I think we'll have "that talk" then.
As a parent, I actually find that I have the best convo's with my kids are in the car, we are both trapped, we know how long we have to say what we have to get out which means we have to factor in a resolution time too, nothing beats "quality time" when it comes to teenage kids.

Yeah, good thanks mate, I got a better run down of what had happened, the kid has been on his case for quite some time and bailed him up with some of his mates in toe, the kid was pushing him in the chest saying "come on, come on", my lad snapped and gave him one then pinned him down with his forearm under his chin and fist clenched until a teacher came.
I told him that sometimes you just have no choice but he has to tell me next time and tell me if there's any repercussions from this, they've crossed paths a couple of times since and the kid has said nothing so hopefully it's the end of it.
I know he'll never go looking for trouble but it's important to be able to defend yourself.

Mate it’s a hard one isn’t it.
We are suppose to tell our kids to walk away but sometimes you do need to stand up for yourself to make it stop.
Your lad didn’t king hit him so it’s all good in my books.
Hopefully that’s the end of it for you.

This frontline game seems to have everyone hooked. I went to make sure he was awake this morning and there he was dead to the world with his headphones still on, it's all about to come to a screaming halt.

Not just limited to your son mate, you would be amazed at the amount of kids who rock into school half-asleeep, late or both becausde they were up playing Fortnite.
