I wouldn't worry too much about the fighting stuff. heck D8 got into some trouble when she was D6 and we were still together. In my opinion, pedagogs (is that a word?) worry alittle too much about what goes on in the school yard these days. I had my share scrapes and my parents were fine. On the what to tell him....that is a tough one. In my case we made it clear that we would not be getting back together and in spite of that, D8 still hopes we do. In your case there actually is a chance even though you are seperated. Agree with K on the reporting issue...just the facts maam.
