-It. That's The Way You Need It Closed

He was done. He was tired of being treated like he was just a landfill for all of the verbal crap to be thrown at. This just gave him a sense of disrespect and as the children's parent, he needed them to respect him. They might not like him, but he did it for the better, the better of his own kids, their own future.

He couldn't put them in timeout, any form of corporal punishment was looked down upon by him, thinking it was horrible, and even just a verbal threat didn't work. His son was unruly. He can't just let Clark stay at Hogwarts. It was time for the goblin to come home.

The man pulled out a leather jacket, slightly tinted with red, with the matching leather pants. He was going to send this owl off and inform the Headmaster of Clark's withdrawal from the institution.

@Solomon Lear,

I regret to inform you that my son, Clark William Baird (he would've been registered by the Quill as Clark William Baird-Carter), is going to be taken out of the school. As much as I do not want to do this, I feel, as his singular parent, his father, that it is an absolute necessity for him to be taken off of the school's roster and pulled out of any extracurriculars.

This son of mine has done enough damage to the school, to its students and to me and I do not want his actions to be a reflection of you. When it comes down to it, I want you to be seen as the resilient Headmaster who did not have to suffer by the hands of my terrorizing son.

If you feel the need to, you do have my permission to erase his academic grades in Astronomy. I am well aware of his exploiting of my previous position for his own benefit.

Now, while not mandatory, I feel the absolute necessity or need to meet with you somewhere to determine the best course of action, outside of the school. If I had to be honest, I do not know how to be a great father, a great parent. Any advice you could or would have would be great, since I know you have been at Hogwarts for many years and have to deal with multiple delinquents. I want him to stay away from Azkaban, and I want us to talk about it. What do you think? Some beer at Hogs Head next Tuesday? I'll pay for it.

- Octavius Baird

Octavius groaned, knowing he was dirt-poor and he needed to get employed as soon as possible, preferably doing the bare minimum of working on the second level of the Ministry. He had a dream to be a judge, to make the world right again, to showcase that what he did with Clark was not a waste, as it got him to where he would've been and Clark would've turned out to be an excellent child, a kind human. But for now, that was just a false reality he wished he was in.

He wrote on the paper, writing small in between the final paragraph and his signature, just to cast Revelio on it.

It's not like I have any money, I took in a new child @Ernest Baird If he continues to demolish things at Hogwarts, to even risk bringing lawsuits against us and him, we would be out of a home! He needs to come home, NOW. I also need him to stay as far away as possible from Alyssea Brown, as he spiked her drink with Amortentia. He ran me ragged, all of the money I earned as the Professor was quickly thrown out the moment I even got it.
