"Parents evening"

Got all of our reports the other day, not too good compared to my sisters but it was ok.
But we got parents evening tonight to discuss reports and progress, now, my head of house has said that he would like a word with my mum about my attitude towards dinner ladies (she doesn't know this yet).
Right, now, do i go so that i can defend myself and make sure that he doesn't make a load of crap up, or do i stay home and wait for the results, what would you do?

I have 6 and a half weeks off from the 19th onwards. I'd stay at home Robin. Parents evening is for parents. You'll only end up in an arguement.

I only have 4 weeks off from the 19th, then it's a two week exam period.

I've had some adventures with parents eavenings. I never had to go along back in the first few years of high school, and while never excellent, my reports were always positive. But they started to slide drastically when I got into year 10 and especially year 11 (though they weren't anything special in year 9, but at least I was actually going to my lessons back then)

One time I kept the parents evening secret from my parents, and they never asked about it. Until my report was sent in the post to them... Bah, stupid school. Got quite a "telling off" for that. Every time after that (we had two a year) and even in 6th form, I had to go with my parents, and every time it was bad news. Bah.

Hey, I have one a year, and my parents never bother to turn up. Ha! :P
