Quick tip please

dw, has been complaining about ss, and his bad grades for 3 days, now she sent me an email from his school, the teacher basically saying he just doesn't care, if he is grounded tonight then we will watch his favorite movie, or play his favorite board game, in a weird way I hope that happens, so I could go up to my music room drink wine at work on music, ( just 2 classes), is that wrong of me to feel that way? now what should I tell dw about the email? mayday mayday

Talk her about the email in a

Talk her about the email in a casual way. Example "Honey, the teacher really thinks he just doesn't care? Wow! That's really why she thinks he's failing? Wow! That's not good. Hey honey...what would you like for dinner tonight?" Clearly, nothing you say regarding your thoughts on this will be taken seriously anyway so why waste your breath. Let them watch his favorite movie "as punishment" and excuse yourself from the event by saying you had a long day and you've got to get to work on your music. Make sure your face, voice and body language are all sincere and gentle!
