what's your opinion?

Okay I don't like the discipline policy but I really have trouble with the attitude she gave you all last night! I cannot believe she said the whole 'sign it and don't call me telling me you didn't know about it because I will pull out this piece of paper' I might ask what happens if you don't sign it. Seriously he is five not ten! I would definitely be talking to someone about this.
