Pretty much told to lie

[OyWithThePoodles]

So I had two kiddos come in last week who had clearly been in an altercation, (Elementary school). We couldn't get the actual story of who had started it, but they both admitted to putting hands on each other. So I documented in the computer "altercation with another student," etc. and the injury. While filling out the accident reports the principal asked what I was putting and I told her. She then tells me not to put that, to put "unable to get actual story of incident, teacher unsure." (Teacher was a sub who really was unsure, but knows they were fighting)

I then had to call one of the parents and say "So and so ended up on the ground, we aren't really sure how, but he has a place on the back of his head." Knowing full well when the kid gets home he is telling parent his side of what happened. Just curious on how the rest of you would have handled this. My principal is very intimidating. I did refuse to fill out accident reports on the other two kids that were involved because I never laid eyes on them.... but she tried to get me to nonetheless. And then decided since I wasn't filling it out, then it didn't need to be done at all.

See, after Haemopholus influenzae, my first thought was Head In Butt situation. Which, oddly enough, could apply to many situations.
