[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This shouldn’t be discussed at back to school night. That’s not the purpose of the night. She should have told you to schedule a conference and talk about it at a different time. [/quote]

That's the weird part! We were like so nice to meet you! [b]We hope our kid is doing okay! [/b]And then she just went in on this. That was jarring. Neither of us were prepared for this. There weren't any other parents at her table and she was alone so maybe she was making conversation but it was strange.

We always do conferences much later, like mid to late October to see how things are going. But this sort of raised a red flag for me but I can't decide if my son isn't up for this class or whether this teacher just doesn't want him in there.[/quote]

You never should have said this. That was your mistake. You put her in a bad position - if she said fine and lied then you’d be pissed if you heard later he wasn’t doing fine (but she said he was doing ok at back to school night!) It’s a no win situation. [/quote]

Oh come on, it's small talk. EVERY parent says this.[/quote]
