[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD says that her teacher has favorites.  Her friends confirm it.  My response is pretty much in the 'Okay, so what?' range.  So, teachers are human, and have bias.  Unless it is negatively impacting children, there isn't any need to do anything about it.

And it is worthwhile, having a conversation with your child about how [b]fair and equal are not the same thing.[/b]  The teacher's job is to make sure that everyone's needs are met, and [b]that may mean that not everyone is treated equally.[/b][/quote]

Agreed, but most teachers are self serving, and reward kids from a personal standpoint instead of a professional one.[/quote]

Who are you to make a statement like that?  No wonder teachers hate their F'ing jobs.  They deserve so much more money and respect.  [/quote]

"Fair is not always equal" is a well-known statement of inclusiveness. If you treat all students "equally" you deny access to some. People whose life experience includes disability issues/awareness know that. [/quote]
