my son got in big trouble at school . he was very mean to his best friend , and i had to call his mom and explain what had happened . that 's terrible when friends fight . what was it over ? he was n't even upset with his friend , he was upset with someone else . i felt so bad having to explain it to his friends mom . that 's got to be a tough phone call to make . did you two make amends or is she very upset ? she was fine with it . she knew he was in big trouble at home . uh oh do n't want to be that kid that 's for sure !
The son's misbehavior and mistreatment of his best friend caused the feeling of shame.
