It’s either a simple drywall repair (square the hole, add wood cross beam if necessary, screw up drywall, mud, and tape) or you can lay down some metal screen and plaster it over. Easy-peasy.
Actually when my son stepped through the ceiling, we just put a grille for AC over it. Looks just like the ones that are actually connected to the AC unit.
It’s not such a difficult problem to fix. A bit troublesome, yes, but nothing to get worked up over.p.s. Michael, you’re getting a receding hairline. A bit young for that…
You could always just hire somebody who knows what they’re doing. You’d probably be fine except that ceilings are so often textured, and depending on the material used and how it was finished, you might find it difficult to match the existing ceiling.
When these strips were black & white, Michael’s hair was “suggested” by a few lines on his forehead. Now that we insist on color, the “suggestion” becomes a ridiculous receding hairline on an 8 year old.
Good grief! Hire someone to fix it and get good old FIL to pay half. (or all…he should offer) Maybe gramps can do the job when his foot feels better. End of whine, John.

You’re a dentist. Drill it out and fill it with amalgam.

If he does fix it it would be a crowning achievement.

As a dentist, I’d have thought that he’d be quite at home filling cavities.

haha..I was thinking the same thing about Michaels hair! I thought maybe an oversite by the writer. But it’s in the frame before too.

Did we remember to celebrate the forty-fifth anniversary of Gocomics complaints about Michael’s hair?

As punishment for being fresh, John could shave Michael’s head. At least Michael would not look so weird.
