It's the Principal of the Thing

I had a little challenge today with my student. In a fit of frustration, he pretty much shut down on the writing lesson. After some difficult moments, I suggested we talk to the school principal.

"Principal?! What's that?"

"No, Honey. Who's that. You're the student; I'm the teacher; Daddy's the Principal. He's in charge of the home school. I think we need to talk to him."

A few moments later, after a brief three-way phone conversation, my frustrated student was ready to resume his lessons.

I love homeschooling, or at least the principal of the thing.
