your husband is swiss and he is not weighing in on this?

we live in switzerland.

1. parents teach their children to handle their own lives. even in school the situation is between the child and the teacher not the teacher and the parent. the mother is simply following a swiss cultural moray by not approaching you on the phone directly. its for her son to solve with her support for him directly.
Just like the 1st grade Swiss teacher that smacked a kid upside the head for forgetting her homework. She did this in front of the mother. That's acceptable in Swiss culture?
