[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your concern is valid. This not developmentally appropriate and very punishing. I would complain. [/quote]

I messaged the teacher to let her know that DC would probably be off today and why. I mean DC was sobbing when I left for work, so I hope they calmed down before dad took them to school. [/quote]

I disapprove of the punishment but this is incredibly overdramatic for something so minor. You sure DC isn’t picking up on your feelings? Surely he has been reprimanded at school or daycare at some point before? Even with the most well behaved kids things happen. [/quote]

Op here. Of course they haven't been perfect and have been reprimanded in the past. I think they were just really embarrassed by the consequence which was making them more upset. It's one thing to get reprimanded/corrected in the moment, it's another to have an embarrassing consequence that singles them out the next day. It stretches out the whole situation much longer than it needs to.

I didn't say anything to upset them or even that it was unfair. I just said that I understood why they were upset and I wasn't upset with them, but they made a mistake and this was the consequence the school determined.[/quote]
