[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't like my son's teacher either - she picks on my kid. He has ADHD and she seems to find him overwhelming and unlikeable. 
I know it sounds like my DS is a pain- and he can be- but [b]he gets in trouble for behaviors that are ignored in other kids.[/b] My son was distracted and not working well one day- they sent him to the office and I got called. Yet [b]kids who have engaged in much worse behavior (saying mean things, harassing behaviors, and one case of egregious bullying) are not sent to the office. [/b]
I just hijacked this thread- sorry. I needed to get it off my chest. Deep breath, the year is almost over...[/quote]

OP, how do you know that other kids have done the same things your son is doing?  Have you spent multiple, entire days within the classroom?  I'll bet you are going by what your son tells you.

Could it be possible that your son is frequently behaving in ways that distract other students and prevent them from learning, or that prevent the teacher from giving other students the attention and care they deserve as well?  How do you know that any of those students have special needs that require some special attention from the teacher (which she might be prevented from giving if your son is repeatedly acting out when she's not able to focus on him)?  Just because you think your son has an excuse or condition causing his misbehavior does not mean that the teacher is wrong for sending him out of the room when he becomes uncontrollable/distracting.  How arrogant of you. [/quote]
