[quote=Anonymous]The animosity this forum has for teachers really bugs me. Yes, some teachers are lousy with SN (or NT) kids.  But so many parents on this forum spend so much time in adversarial mode and always assume the worst of teachers.  No wonder teachers then put up their defenses.  My experience in my son's (short) life has been a lot of concerned and kind teachers and administrators -- even if they didn't always do exactly what i needed, i knew they were doing what they thought was in the best interest of my son. And he's been a very tough kid to deal with.

When i read the OP's very brief post, i assumed the kid was having a behavioral problem that the teacher wanted to document for the parents -- and given that OP is mad about it, i assumed it was something OP was in denial about.  When op said it was in front of the class, i didnt' assume in a humiliating way.  Lots of things can happen in a 1st grade class, for example, that are in front of the class but that not a single other kid is paying attention to.

I also thought OP sounded really aggressive in her anger about some facts that worst case don't merit much anger.  Angry enough that if there were other bad facts to include, she would have included them.  The fact that she is light on facts leads me to think the context of this photo was not a big deal.

Point is: poor teacher who has to deal with parents like this.  [/quote]
