[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the teacher asked for it, do it. If your well-meaning aunt or friend who lives several states away advised it, don't do it. I will be sending an email to each new teacher one of my daughters has, through elementary school. It will say basically, "Hello. Please be advised that Molly is adopted. Her older sister who you may have seen around school (Emily) is not. I just wanted to let you know in case you had any "family tree" type assignments coming. Molly is fully aware of her adoption. As of yet, she has never chosen to tell anyone about it. Thank you." [/quote] This is a legit reason to reach out to a teacher. Little factoids about your child’s likes and dislikes aren’t necessary. Teachers know how to get to know their students. And tiny humans are notoriously fickle as any parents who has ever stocked up on a toy, food, or article of clothing can attest. Tell the teacher in late August that [b]Larla’s best friend is GeighGeig[/b]h and Larla is likely to say “GeighGeigh who?” on the first day of school. [/quote] PP, you (and I) spend too much time on DCUM![/quote] Too true.[/quote]
