And disagree with the other poster about it being none of my business.  How is knowing whom my kid is around none of my business?  I'm not interested in the kid's personal life, but a parent has a right to know the people my kid is around for 5 hours a day in a small confined space.  [/quote]

The other child's behavior is your business, insofar as it affects your child. Whether or not the child is classified as GT/LD is none of your business.[/quote]

I think it is my business because when my DC asks me why the kid gets away with that behavior I can explain that it is because that kid is LD or something to that effect.  I don't know for sure if that child is LD or not. But I was trying to understand if LDs could be HGC classes.  And now that I know they are, it would explain why that kid seems to get away with such disruptive behavior when I know that other kids don't.[/quote]

Nope, still none of your business. You explain that you don't know why the child behaves like that (which is true; you don't), and you don't know why the teacher does what the teacher does (which is true; you don't), but that's just how it is for now, and your child's job is to focus on their own work and behavior.

Also, please check your language. "LDs"? The children are not learning disabilities. They are children with learning disabilities.[/quote]
