It’s nice as a parent when one of your children does something noteworthy, unexpected and meritorious.
I was proud of Kathleen earlier this week when she showed some excellent initiative.
The police put out a missing person alert for a 14-year-old girl, saying they had concerns for her safety. I saw the police media release on Monday morning.
Later that morning, the high school rang me to say Kathleen might need to be interviewed by police; did she have my permission?
On her way to school by bus, Kathleen and her friend saw the missing girl being pulled into a car. They reported that to the school and the police were informed. The girls even recorded the car’s registration number.
It turned out the police didn’t need to interview Kathleen and the missing girl was found safe and well. It might have been her family that Kathleen saw.
Nevertheless, it was good observation skills to notice and good citizenship to report what they saw.
And you should feel proud too Michael.
Kathleen has an amazing social conscience.
