Memorygirls - Make Do and Mend

Hello MG - Another lurker here. Do report this (can't think of a polite word to call him). I know there may be consequences and just reporting him will not be the end of the story but sometimes we just have to take a deep breath and do what we know is right. For all we know his problem might get worse and someone could be seriously injured in the future - action now could avoid a much bigger problem (for him and his wife as well as any victim) in the future.

Hugs MG - hope you get it sorted quickly and I'm sure everything will work out to your benefit and the benefit of the school.

Hi MG, sorry to hear about that awful man yesterday. Sounds like you've made lots of positive inroads with the redecoration at the school though, despite him.

I will just quickly reiterate what everyone else has said (and I think you know) that you must report him.

Glad the money is coming easily to you! And I bet you can't wait to get started on that hallway. You must learn how to post photos for us all.

Hope you have a nice evening after what will be a bad day xx

MG. Just catching up and to say that I was agog when reading that post would be an understatement. I wasn't expecting that. You are a very strong person and I know that you will take the right course of action, whatever you decide that is. Now hitting anybody is unforgivable and no excuses can be made for this mans actions towards you. I say that you are a strong person and I mean that so please bear that in mind with what I am about to add. Should this man have hit anybody else (including children) then they may not have had the strength and courage that it is going to take for you to do the right thing. As others have said, it is highly likely that this man has issues. It may be that he is currently under a lot of pressure and acted out of character, it may be that he has anger management issues but whatever those issues are then they need to be addressed. I believe that you were in that hallway and pulled that plug at that particular moment for very specific reasons. Had it been anybody else then the next course of action would most likely be very different. If he had hit one of the men then I am sure that a brawl would have ensued, police would have been called, newsreports would have leaked and the reputation of the school tarnished, if it had happened when school started and it was a child/teenager, well I dread to think of the consequences. You however, have removed yourself from the situation , let off steam to us (thank you for sharing and allowing us to support you) and taken time to work out the next steps. Whatever happens the school will not be adversely affected if that is a worry to you then put that to one side. If anything, the fact that it was YOU that he chose to hit means that, and I am convinced of this, the very best outcome will happen for the school. The reason for this is because you care so much about the school and by dealing with things in a very calm, reasonable and level headed manner the situation can be sorted quickly and correctly. If the Head has any sense then she will ensure that (at the very least) the husband will not be near the school again. You need to do what is right for you too. I personally would report it to the police and if you have carried this through then good. You should be very proud of yourself in reacting in the way that you did. I am not sure that I could have just walked away from the situation. Did any of the witnesses contact you to see if you were ok?

I hope that you managed to overcome the shock last night and that your 2 DS gave you lots of pleasure to help in the aftermath.

Keep positive and just think of that cheque for £165000 when you are feeling low.

Big hugs for you.

As always Cherisong has managed to put into words everything I couldn't.....

What a horrible, horrible thing to have happen, and the ongoing effect of this man's behaviour is that you're no doubt all tied up in knots about the result of contacting the police! Wishing you strength, I hope it goes OK. Just remember that everyone who is party to this situation will also be aghast at his behaviour, maybe the universe decided that you were the one strong enough to deal with him? (I hope his wife is OK!!) Sorry you have this to deal with now
