[quote=Anonymous]Peter - Thank you. I feel like you should send me an invoice for the therapy. I'm OP. I'm not angry. But I also don't let things that are within my control go unremarked on, if I can help it. Some would call that 'being a busybody', others may not have the time to deal with these annoyances and are glad that someone else handles it.

She's taking advantage of her control and dominance over 8 & 9 year olds. It's a step too far. I don't doubt that she's a committed educator (and has been for 20+ years - she's not new to this), but she leaves a film of fear at the end of the day. It's very different from 2nd grade which was all sunshine & daisies.

But you're right about kids being resilient. He's OK. Not overly hurt. But is sometimes hurt. That's why I feel like I should at least make some comments that can be reflected upon. BUT - she's an old dog and I doubt that anything I say will change any behavior.

And - to the PPs about the homework. We are in a new afternoon routine as of the new year, so he was rushed and forgot his math workbook. I think it's OK to drop him at school early the next morning to finish an assignment. It's what real people would do to solve their own oversights. Homework completion is rarely an issue.  I just used that as the example of what prompted the yelling this week.[/quote]
