Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Maybe I'm in the wrong here, but... why not call and let the school know?
You're missing the point. Why didn't the school call before calling CPS and the cops on them?
In America, not every school is staffed to the point where they can have someone sit on phones all day. Most schools around me are working on shoestring budgets, and I'm in a fairly cosmopolitan area of California. It's even worse if you're in a rural area because there's no incentive to get good teachers there through pay rates or bonuses or anything like that. God help your kids if you're in a red state. They are giving emergency teaching credentials to anyone with a pulse.
