When I was a kid, my dinner lady pulled one of my teeth out. I wouldn't be bothered if it was my child, providing they didn't get the pliers out! (ps, as some have mentioned age- I am 30)0

Permission? Seriously?
I got a call from the school last week telling me that my daughter had been jumping in puddles and had wet socks. Did I want to go into school to bring her dry ones? Er no. Did they have permission to let her spend the afternoon with no socks? Er yes. Did I mind that she'd be uncomfortable in her shoes without socks? Er no - it's her own silly fault for getting them wet. I put the phone down with a sense of utter bewilderment that they'd deemed it necessary to call me in the first place.
I certainly wouldn't expect a call as a result of a "wobbly tooth emergency" unless the child was bleeding profusely and/or howling in pain.
You were called because if they didn't, you (generic) would be storming in at hometime complaining that your little blossom had been forced to wear wet/no socks all day and promptly keep them at home with a cold for the rest of the week!0
