[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adult bullies are not that different from child bullies. They will attack the ones they perceive as being weaker and often back off when confronted. If the teacher perceives that you are fearful of her she will not stop.

If you say nothing, you can be assured that this teacher will continue bullying your child. If you say something to the principal and are tactful but firm its much more probable that the teacher will back off not retaliate and risk further action. If she does retaliate, you are no worse off since she is already being mean. If she raises the level of inappropriate behavior you are armed for further action. [/quote]

I think I agree.  The first step would be a "pretend-ally" approach where you sweetly approach the teacher about the kid feeling like she doesn't like him.  Now she knows you're paying attention and that may end it right there.   If not, raise it with the principal after that.  I don't think i'd have a second conversation with the teacher.   
Then, you bet I'd sit in on the class.  Especially if she says the kid is making things up.  [/quote]
