[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the deal with your kid waiting this long to recover from the missed work?[/quote]

She was hospitalized and is now adjusting to a chronic autoimmune condition. She’s been a bit busy. [/quote]

Maybe but the. Why wasn’t there proactive efforts to get incompletes and extensions instead of waivers of responsibility.

But I think the real issue is what people are pointing out about gathering information before reacting. A quick google search shows that calming spaces are a real thing and considered valuable. Regulating emotions is something that is a real issue and I know my kid’s IEP addressed. My kid was in a non mainstream program and had these type of services.

And the second real issue is getting things back on track without harm - and as some have pointed out, public shaming is risky for OP’s daughter. [/quote]

Does a quick google search show that a public bulletin board with names and check marks documenting when kids cry in class is also considered valuable?[/quote]

But is that what the video actually shows? 
Take the video to admin. Show it to them. There’s a possibility that isn’t what the board actually shows.

Several posters now have suggested this as a reasonable course of action. [/quote]

That’s how the OP described it. You can choose not to believe her, but I don't know why you're making something else up.[/quote]

I’m not going to believe something without seeing it myself. OP might be exaggerating. OP may be misinterpreting.

I have children of my own and I have been teaching many years. I learned long ago not to believe the first thing I hear. There’s the truth, and then there’s independent interpretations of the truth.

That’s why a meeting with admin is so important. If everybody sees the video and it IS what OP claims it is, then take action against that teacher.

It’s fine to not believe her. But to make up a story of your own is not OK.[/quote]

Where has ANYBODY on this thread made up their own story? Seriously… point me to one post.

Saying “contact admin” is not making up a story. Asking for more info is not making up a story. Not believing everything I’ve been told on DCUM isn’t the same as making up a story.

So I ask again: what story?[/quote]

The posts claiming the teacher just has a room where students can go to privately cry.[/quote]
