No detention phone for us. I did get detention a couple of times for - get this - chewing gum!

My mom was a principal.  Her school had a landline in the hallway.

Good Afternoon

FSI, this is the first time I've heard of the detention phone.

Lucky you. I only had detention one time which required that I attend Saturday school. Stepdad #3 made an example of me by adding a one-month restriction to my punishment. Confused smile

A strict school as was the Christian Brothers my boys attended. However, my guys had a much easier time than some. My Dad played lawn bowls with the eldest brother who came to our house for dinner along with Mother and Dad. He took care of my lads, who then teased him unmercifully!
