Sorry OP that your kid may be in the same class next year. I never understood how these girls become so mean. One of those Hs a perfectly lovely mother who thinks the world of her DD. But that girl is just a miserable, two faced creature. I don’t get it.
Op again. The father is extremely sardonic and sarcastic and clearly thinks I helicopter - the POS has no idea that I’ve been on the PT train and juggling multi week appointments for years., since DD was 6 months old. He is horrible and stuck up. The girl is smart, like mine, and a daredevil so she’ll probably be “cool” even though she’s a whining, horse faced, dead eyed and utterly cruel little b$!tch. The mom is a teacher at the school and in some level a good person and has fretted to me about her girl having empathy issues. Stupid me used to feel sympathy. I’m done. It’s obviously been an issue for years. Fck her.
I’m going to request no placement with her, I don’t need this and my kid sure as hell doesn’t. I’m just (clearly!) so mad but also repulsed. I don’t know what I believe about cruel types being “broken,” since they are likely to get away with anything. My kid won’t be the nasty kid’s plaything, I will raise hell and hurt feelings first.
The epee idea is truly brilliant. Congrats PP.
