[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally agree with PPs. By declining to discuss it, you sent the message that you aren't interested in this family. It's also possible, likely even, that the other parent had information on what was going on between the girls that she felt it would be good to talk about. All your info is second hand from one source. Your daughter might not even understand the full context.

I would actually reach out now, to the mom directly. I would explain you made a mistake in not meeting with her in the fall and you hope to correct it now, either meeting 1:1 or with the school counselor if she prefers. If she declines, at least you tried.

And perhaps you learned that in the future, if a parent reaches out to discuss something, you should at least be willing to talk to them about it.[/quote]

Op here. I declined to have a meeting with the school. I had 2 conversations with parents, including one with the father. The father called and went to the school. The teacher called me after the father went to the school as did the school counselor. Even their teacher told me she was surprised the family requested a school meeting.

I told the mom that they were making a small event bigger than it needs to be. I did not log a complaint against their kid. My kid was upset and crying at school so teacher asked what was wrong.[/quote]
