[quote=Anonymous]I think the best idea whenever you have to talk to school staff/teachers is to approach the problem like you are in the same team trying to problem solve. Whether you believe it or not, approaching this way is helpful because it avoids putting the teachers on the defensive and involves them in finding solutions. I think I would start the conversation by saying that your son has been unusually teary at home lately and you wonder if they have noticed this as well and if they have any ideas about what might be going on. In the course of this discussion there will probably be an opening for you to bring up the other topic (which is kind of secondary anyway, right?) in a non-threatening way, something like "Does DS make it hard for you to wipe him? I have noticed sometimes he looks messy and wondering if he resists being cleaned" and then you can offer ideas as they respond.[/quote]
