Although, I letter that was sent to the child's parent was completely inappropriate.

What do you mean, pushing linux? I doubt a classroom full of grammar students would be all that interested in an OS. He was probably just showing off some of the graphic features linux has built in (wobbly icons, Compiz, etc). Why she would confiscate his disks instead of just telling him to put them away is beyond me. And the letter to the father is just classic.

So no, I don't think the kid was doing daddy's work. I think the kid is stuck with a an idiot of teacher given her response to the father.
