I find it highly unethical for a teacher to criticize a parents parenting skills to their child, during the school day. I would have complained to the principal. |
Absolutely. It is also poor parenting to criticize a teacher's performance in front of the child. |
That doesn't make it a good idea. |
Bag of chips and a can of soda. That's what I've seen kids with.
For a couple of years ds's health class involved a week of packing a healthy lunch according to the food pyramid or whatever. (It fit in with curriculum) The kids were supposed to have the majority of the input into the lunch. Parents were faced with a bunch of little lunch critics for a few weeks after, but then things went back to normal. |
Practice this: None Of Your Business. Say it loud and often when things like this occur. YOU are the parent. YOU get to determine what your child eats. THEY do not. |
No wonder American kids are so fat. Not only do you feed your kids crap, you get huffy and defensive and want to lynch the teacher when she tries to educate your children on healthier ways to eat.
You're militantly ignorant and it's setting your kids up for a life-time of health problems. |
Great way to have a good relationship with teacher. |
None of that is abuse. Want to know what abuse is? Abuse is when you are are 7, 4 and 11 months and are locked in your house by your parents who take off for days, and leave you with no food, heat, nothing. That's what police just uncovered in Washington state. |
Want to be friends? I love you PP |
My job as a parent is to protect my kids from 'well-meaning' people, not to suck up to my kid's teacher. |
The problem with judginess? You have no idea how anyone else feeds their kids, but the teacher is a damn saint when she makes a barbed comment to a kid. Know what's going through that kid's mind? "Why would my mommy send me with food that's not good for me?" Way to fuck with a kid's head, teacher...and over a PB&J and some fruit snacks. |
Cause mommy is lazy or doesn't care |
And you know this how? |
Because a good mother stands in front of the stove and cooks food. If you pack uncooked food in your child's lunch, you are a lazy mother who is not even trying. (To do what? We still don't know.) That's what I have learned from this thread. |
Hehe.
Moms of ES kids are so funny. Lunch wars! |
