Ben frowned. If a note had been sent home, Bram had been very disruptive indeed. "I never got it. I'll make sure he remembers to behave and he'll apologize." Well that would be awkward, but Ben didn't know that. "But you'd do me and him a great favor if you keep him from socializing with Ed at school." Sometimes Ben saw more of Simon in Bram than he liked; the struggles in school, the impulsiveness, the sensitivity, the wild imagination, the sudden gloomy moods. Ben kept a closer eye on Bram than on the other children. The last thing he wanted for his son was a bad influence.
