I'm not trying to question authority or anything, but I don't really understand what all the fuss is about the sledding. I mean, maybe I just don't understand something because I'm muggleborn, but quidditch seems just as dangerous? I mean, you're way up high on brooms jostling each other, and there are two iron balls enchanted to attack you and try to knock you off your broom. People get hurt plenty at that, right? And there were broken bones and concussions from hockey the other day, too.

And I get that there was underage drinking, and people were hurt and there was no healer on hand, but if people do this every year anyway, why don't they just turn it into a school sanctioned event? Staff being there would keep people from drinking, and Mufferaw could be there to fix any injuries.

~~Or is it just that we're only allowed to endanger ourselves for sports? You're allowed to get a concussion as long as it's something you can win at?~~

	Relaxing is not something I do very often. I will not bother her anymore, Rosemary is handling this. As is right, she is her prefect. ~~Although it seems frustrating to~~ To say I "enjoy" it is not right. It's an uncomfortable subject. You remember English was harder for me when I was a freshman. I hate thinking I still can't make people understand me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Don't worry, I'm sure Ro's made her cry before too.

I know it is, Raf. I don't think there was a misunderstanding in the language. You said what you meant, and there was no language barrier. It was a misunderstanding of personalities. Chloe doesn't know you like the rest of us do. We know when you're being a smug dick, and we know when you're getting frustrated. She doesn't. People understand you.

But if it makes you feel better, I'm actually getting tired of seeing so many assholes bitching about the strong arm of the law. Back in my day, detentions was a stable of our reputation. Now you got assholes questioning authority and crying foul and if their bitching gets our grotto parties revoked just because they can't understand the difference between drunk sledding and partying in the middle of the woods, I'm going to be forced to educate them.
