[quote=Anonymous][quote]So the problem child is "closer" to the teacher therefore the teacher spends even more time on this one kid and ignores the advanced well behaved kids. I don't think people should get so hung up on if the suspensions are minority kids or not. Some of these kids come from horrific backgrounds and while school is probably the safest place for them, CPS needs to be involvd to find out why their parents or home environments are creating so many issues. I have heard enough about young girls being harassed by young boys in class to be highly concered about some of the agressive behavior that starts in K. the bullies are learning that from being in environemnts where they are wathcing violent and sxual video games in the home, experiencing and witnessing violence from their moms and their boyfriends and then taking that learned behcaivor into a classroom. No thanks. I have zero tolerance if my child is the victim. [/quote]

My impression from the teacher is that the child sits next to her at circle time and has his nap mat placed next to her during rest time. And for what it's worth, my response to what happened to my daughter was to immediately call a meeting with her teacher, the school's counselor and the principal to discuss what happened and how to prevent it from happening again. THEIR response was to schedule a meeting with his mom, have him meet with the psychologist and report what happened to CFSA. The child is still in the classroom. I assume the investigation is ongoing. I recognize and accept that they cannot disclose the progress of that investigation to me. I am satisfied with my responses to the situation and the way I advocated for my child. The school's response gave me confidence that they are not ignoring the problem. My daughter's teacher's response did not lead me to believe that she would be unable to pay attention to other students.

That said, the rest of your post is pretty offensive and I would be very interested what direct experience you have with anything you're talking about, just to make sure that it's not complete racist garbage you're spewing here. [/quote]
