   Well, it is funny – in a weird sort of way.

   It’s always funnier when it happens to someone else’s kid.
   
   The same way it’s funny when someone else’s kid misbehaves, yet I’m mortified when it’s mine.

   Exactly! And it’s one of those, “That would only happen to Holly” events.

    I never considered what Holly did to be funny, Aunt Joan is right, Holly gets caugth even funnier. Never happened to my daughter in college not sure of HS. my son not sure of HS.

    I’m sorry I wasn’t here last week.

    Nowadays this would be even harder, thanks to certain online search features.

    Since this misbehavior-in-school arc may be coming to an end soon, I gotta put in a spectacular misbehavior that might not quite fit in with today’s strip. When she was nine and in fourth grade (skipped kindergarten because she could read anything), our brilliant, otherwise-stable oldest granddaughter took a Swiss army knife onto the school bus and passed it around! We may have thought this had its funny elements, but were mainly mystified as to why she could have done such a thing. The middle-school principal was not amused, but they finally settled on a parent conference, an industrial-strength talking-to and a brief in-school suspension. That was four years ago; she hasn’t gotten into trouble since. No telling what might have happened to her in some school districts.

    @Gokie5

    It is sad that brining a Swiss army knife is now considered reason for suspension. Sad indeed.
