Dear Mrs. Xxxxxxxx
You may already know this, but in case Erik has neglected to tell you, I am assigning him to detention for one hour this Friday, April 22nd. The reason is as follows:
Erik consistently defied me. During class he contradicted me numerous times when I insisted that the length of one kilometer was greater than that of one mile. Every other student in class accepted my lesson without argument, but your son refused to believe what I told him, offering such rebuttals as, "You're lying to the class," and commanding other students to challenge my curriculum.
Although he was correct, Erik's actions show a blatant disregard for authority, and a complete lack of respect for his school. In the future, Erik would be better off simply accepting my teachings without resistance.
Please see to it that your son understands this.
Regards
Mrs XXXXXXXXX
