It Was Self-Defense I Tell You!

"'So... A group of boys tried to bully your daughter by calling her names-'"

Can't Say It Didn't Work...

"One time my grandma had to come pick me up because I decided that for April fools day, I'd take a bunch of ketchup packs, fold them in half and place them under the nubs of all the toilet seats so they would explode all over the back of your legs when you sit down."

Um... Could You Repeat That?...

"What was REALLY hilarious is that my parents forced both the principal and the priest to apologize afterwards."

"My parents are brother and sister in-laws as well as married."

"They actually met at the wedding of my father's brother to my mother's sister."

"Neither the principal nor the priest let me expand on the question and refused to let me talk further until my parents showed up."

Nacho Overload

"Mother had to pick me up after I went to school dressed as nacho libre in his fancy clothes and ripped the pants reenacting the butt flex scene in front of my main class." - huffcox

Oddest Ducklings

"Oldest kid was eating the teacher’s granola bars off her desk for a couple of weeks before she figured out who was taking them. He thought they were snacks for everybody lol. Youngest was put in the corner for whatever reason and the teacher caught her licking the wall. She’s still a freakin weirdo." - tbama11

Wallflower

"He walked into a wall. When asked by the nurse why he did that, his answer was, 'no one told me not to.' The nurse couldn't control her laughter when she said this and apologized profusely. It's OK though, I laughed too. He was fine by the way!" - InPerfectCircles

American Vandal

"My mom had to come pick me up because I and a friend decided to steal a tube of hot pink frosting from homeck class. I drew a penis on the side of the football fields announcement booth. It was very bright pink and very big. The sun literally baked it on there and lasted for a good solid 5 years till they repainted it. I was suspended for a day over it." - theresacreamforthat

Demerits

"My son was in second grade and he got a demerit for farting. It wasn’t the actual fart that got to the merit, it was his response."

"The teacher asked “what will you do next time to make sure this doesn’t happen again?” and my son answered ”Next time I fart in class, I won’t laugh as loud and get a demerit!”

"I still have that note his baby book, couldn’t bear to throw it away." - Ok-Fishing-6604

Garlic

"My Uncle used to get sent home from school because he smelled bad. He would eat raw garlic on purpose to get sent home. The man is a legend. I named my first child after him." - Embarrassed-Intern52

Duck

"I had to pick up my son from 2nd grade for punching another kid."

"My son has always been a very literal child. He just has no way to automatically know if someone is being serious or kidding. If he suspects you're not being truthful, he'll ask."

"Anyway, this kid put his hoodie on backwards and kept pulling the hood over his face and saying he could see through the hood. My kid kept asking if he was kidding, and the kid assured him several times he was not."

"So my kid swung his arm and knocked the kid upside his dome. Forearm, not fist, but it still sent the kid stumbling into a desk. Kid went to the nurse for some comforting, my son went to talk to the principal."

"The principal sent him back to the room, then called me. She stifled a couple of giggles when she told me what he said as to why he did it. "Well, Ms Principal, he said he could see through the hood. If he could really see through the hood, he would have ducked. But he didn't, which means I was right and he was lying."" - pedantic_dullard

​The elephant in the Room

"She’s feeling sick because of “the elephant meat that Daddy brought from Africa and made me eat”. Imagine having a serious discussion with a principal about how unethical it is to eat elephant meat and illegally import it to Europe, while you’re just repeatedly saying: “And you believed her?!” - OneAceFace

One can only imagine that these parents would have still preferred not to get these calls.

As they still resulted in a trip to the doctor's office and/or, a stern talking to or punishment.

However, at least these were childhood instances that both child and parent would rather not forget in a few year's time.

Far from it, these are stories which will probably be told, with unending delight, for the rest of their lives.

Inducing endless laughter along the way.
