Just had a bit of a challenging sitch.

Got a call from S's school. He got in trouble yesterday; they have a color coding system at his school that goes from Green (good behavior), Yellow (warning), Orange, Red (worst, sent to Principals). Anyway, S has been getting on Yellow and Orange lately. We have consequences at home if he gets on the 'poor behavior' colors. The consequences become more severe depending on the color.

Yesterday he told me he was 'Yellow'. Well the teacher just called and told me he was in fact on RED. I called H to let him know primarily bc he has the kids this weekend so I wanted him to speak to Son ASAP. I am so angry about S lying to me about the color he was on. I told H that I am very angry about the lying. And then there was this awkward elephant in the room feel bc obviously H has lied and lied and lied to me for months during A. I got off the phone quickly so my anger didn't get the better of me.

How do folks deal with the hypocripsy of the whole sitch???
