"...Your rights rest with your son. Not with me and certainly not in my classroom." His eyes widened. He stared at me in shock. He clearly hadn't been expecting this I pressed on. I almost smiled to hear him stutter. I had him on the ropes now.I bored into his disbelieving dark irises, "You understand the law, sir. No one is above it."I had pricked his pride, both male and professional. That much was clear in the sharp forward movement of the body, the swift look at his son, who responded with a stunned, half-look at his dad and a quickly dipped head.He sprang up, a panther unleashed yet restrained by instinct. I was mentally poised, quite prepared to give as good as I got. So far and no farther. I have had enough of being bullied. Not today, Advocate. Not today. A movement from my peripheral vision.
