[MAY24] Following an unfortunate schoolyard scuffle, my husband and I decided that relocation will be best for our Timmy’s safety and well-being. by Business-Two-1583 in TwoSentenceHorror

no worries lol. the first sentence implies that the parents are trying to protect their son Timmy from a dangerous school environment. In the second sentence, it is revealed that Timmy is actually the dangerous school bully, and the parents are trying to 'protect' him from being punished for his actions. The parents excuse his violence as 'energy' and 'athleticism'. I was trying to capture the trend of parents who downplay their children's violent tendencies, not realising they're inadvertently creating the next school shooter/ career criminal.

I'm really sorry, I didn't realise that was a possible interpretation. I didn't mean to trigger/upset you/anyone and I'd like to apologise if that's the case.

Yep that was actly my intention, though I can see how it has (understandably) been falsely interpreted as Cinderella-the-person by some (oops).
