The Parent’s Words
According to the parents, the principal has convinced the parents to let their daughters stay back at the school overnight, by saying that it would be very time-consuming for the girls to travel up and down on the same day. The parents were less worried about their daughters as they were a large group of almost 20, the parents thought they could take care of themselves altogether. Later they discovered that the principal didn’t ask the 14 boys of the same class to stay at the night.
