[quote=Anonymous]Oh man, hugs to you. That must be hard. I teach middle school. It’s the height of paranoid, “everyone is looking at me!” phase, and we do a lot of work to build self esteem and teach empathy but man, it is slow going. Maybe when you’re both comfortably distanced from the situation you can ask why she thought they’d make fun of you/her. Has she seen it happen to other parents? If so, maybe reach out to the counselor. In FCPS we are creating lessons every other day to teach/reinforce social emotional learning and this sort of thing is a really relevant touch point that maybe a lesson on physical disabilities and appropriate reactions is needed.[/quote]
