I'm currently in IVDU Upper School this year and there is a kid in my class named Yosef Dovid Hass who has anger problems and makes it his business when I do something wrong (example: Eavesdropping on my principal's conversation with a mother for next year in the office). I feel that it's none of his business and that it's only my problem and not his. What should I do?

Hey EphraimB.

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, so to clarify, the conversation was between you, your mom, and the principal? It seems like the best thing would be to politely ask the principal if the meeting could be held in his/her office so anything that gets discussed will remain private.

No, the conversation was between the principal and another mother. I was the one eavesdropping on the conversation.

You should not name actual people on this Site. It violates their privacy.

Wait a minute. I'm also struggling to understand. And side note, yeah please don't use people's real names, but I assume you didn't know that was against the rules.

Okay so:
-you were eavesdropping on the conversation between the principal and your mom
-this guy caught you and is making a big deal about it
-and you want to know what to do about it?

I advise ignoring him. It's kind of weak to tattletale about something like that. It would make you look better to appear unconcerned, instead of letting him see that it bothered you.

If anyone else asks if you were eavesdropping, I would say that you noticed that you could hear them so you did listen and now you're sorry. There really isn't anything else you can say about that.

The conversation in the office that I eavesdropped on was NOT between the principal and my mom. It was between the principal and a DIFFERENT mom.

OHH...okay. Sorry, I was confused.

Well, still. The other guy caught you, so you can't deny it. I still think it makes him look like a tattletale to point it out in the first place. I think the only thing you can do is act like it's not a big deal. If someone brings it up, you could shrug your shoulders and say, "Yeah, I shouldn't have done that." Then change the subject. That makes it clear that it's not important. It will make the other person look petty to continue talking about it.
