[quote=Anonymous]My DC was so excited to do the 'meet the teacher' meeting at school.

During the very brief meeting I was very disappointed because the teacher would gush over some kids and not others. It typically tended to be the kids where the teacher had a sibling in prior years or knew the parents.

My DC left the session a bit dejected. The teacher was not mean or anything but her entire demeanor changed when a 'favorite' kid or family walked in the door. At those points she could not be bothered with the other kids and my DC just kind of sat there.

I am worried how this might play out during the year given how very apparent the preferences were during a very brief meet and greet. DC is our first and we do not have any 'comnections' to have known the teacher. We are not well known at the school.

Any advice or similar experiences? Will it fade once the teacher gets to know all the kids? I just don't want my kid to feel like they are less important/liked since the teacher is so influential in these early years.

Thanks for advice![/quote]
