[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,

This is a tough one.  As a former teacher, I can say that the teacher is more upset about this than your child.  If this is K, it may take a while before anything happens.  However, I would hold off a little--this is only the second week of school.  I would NOT ask the teacher what strategies she is using to correct the problem.  That puts her on the spot with privacy issues.  It is unprofessional to talk about a specific child with another parent. [b] Please don't ask her to tell you what she is doing about the problem.[/b]

Since this is only the second week of school, I would wait a week or so and see what happens.  Believe me, the teacher is working on it.  Getting a child removed from the class is  not going to happen quickly.  I'd try to downplay it with your own child, as others have suggested.

BS. No one is asking her to breech confidences. The parent has every right to ask how the teacher is making sure that the[i] parent's child [/i]is kept safe and secure.  The teacher should have no problem explaining her strategies for that. If the teacher cannot, then the parent should be escalating this issue to the administration. The privacy of any one kid need never come into jeopardy. [/quote]
