[quote=Anonymous]My Dad was a public school principal, my mom a teacher. I’m pro-teacher all the way but my biggest regret is not listening to my DD about nearly same scenario OP. Believe me-my DD wasn’t perfect but the one thing she is is sweet & likeable. She said she had no idea why this one teacher had it in for her but I gave teacher benifit of doubt for way too long. Things finally came to a head (my DD insisted on dealing with advocating for herself until then w/counselor.) At mtg w/that teacher, 4 other teachers, counselor and VP and me/DH teacher was just complaints with no way for DD to move ahead with her. Could not find one thing positive to say despite all others saying what a great kid she was (despite as referenced above, her non-perfection!) We sat through meeting and then said as there was no path forward with that teacher she needed a different class. Sorry we waited to see if it would change. Get him out. Whether its a personality mismatch or your kid did something-its a failed relationship. You don’t need to experience yucky behavior and come though it. Recognizing when to move on is a great skill[/quote]
