From School to School

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

You cared enough to want to tell us.

Which leads me to the "why"

There's a couple of reasons why you posted even though you profess "not to care".
It might be that you are seeking validation or attention or you are simply venting frustration. If it is the latter then clearly you do care as the situation has left you frustrated enough to want to share it with others.

I am leaning towards the validation or attention seeking though as a more likely reason. The whole post just sits there screaming "look at me! .. Look. At. ME!" narcissists thrive on both positive and negative attention.. and attention received due to bad behavior is far easier to instigate and the return is often far greater than that received for good behavior.

But your kid isn’t interested in the next hundred years, just the immediate 10. It might be time to have a care.
Maybe a mod could assist?

If you're not happy with a product or service why would anyone keep using that product or service and then complain loudly to anyone who will listen as to your complaints about said product or service.

You're right. In the long run it all doesn't matter

But while we're waiting for that time to come we have one hell of a father getting his son expelled from a school because of father's behavior, who then outs his son's full name when bragging about this online.

At least one of the double whammy mistake you can correct. It was your intention, so it seems, to cover it up, so why not do the kid the pleasure of removing it?
