[quote=Anonymous]I disagree with those who suggest having your child advocate for herself.  There are many teachers who don't want to be corrected by a student.  Unless you know that this teacher is not one of them, I would not have her advocate for herself without proof that she can bring in.[b]  Such teachers can often be vindictive towards a student that embarrasses or corrects them.  [/b]The dictionary comment is the only one that I would advocate your daughter do herself.  Otherwise, I would get the assistance of an adult, whether you, the mother, or the English teacher  I would send an email saying that your daughter showed you this correction and was confused because she had it correct.  I would say that I verified via &lt;source&gt; and she did have the correct word.  Even though I know it myself, I would cite a reference that confirmed what both my child and I knew.  I would just say that my daughter was leaving the title as she originally had it for the final copy without a request for a response and this message was just to let her know.

This.  PARENT:  go to the principal.  If the student goes, there will be retaliation against the student, period.
