[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been on both sides of this.

As a teacher, yes I always did this.

As a parent I have been annoyed as my child has been used as a buffer child consistently.

I am not sure what you think the alternative is though?[/quote]

I have the kid who won't stop talking and I ask that she not be put near people she would prefer to talk to. Keeps her quiet, she won't bug her neighbor, and everyone can focus on their work better. Why does this bother the "buffer"? They weren't going to misbehave or talk either way so the end result is the same for them. But now the classroom has less chatter.[/quote]

Did it occur to you to teach your kid how to behave in a classroom setting?[/quote]

Well, she has ADHD, so how could I "teach" her to do that?[/quote]

Proper medication. [/quote]

So you want pp to medicate her kid so your kid can have quiet time?

How about you teach your kid to focus on work and on the teacher and ignore distractions!![/quote]

Nice try. You’re lucky your kid isn’t spending their days in a seclusion room. [/quote]
