[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FYI: My DD didn't want to have her teacher(s) for a "playdate" at home. Although our house is a mess most of the time, I suspect that her refusal had nothing to do with housekeeping :-)-- but more about not having someone she barely knows (this is the beginning of the year) in "her" space. She still does not feel comfortable enough with them and I respected her choice. We "compromised" with a visit to a place that was neither the school nor the house as our school allowed for an alternative location. [/quote] thank you for a rational, sensitive response. The meeting is about the child, not the paranoia or egos of adults. A good teacher will incorporate understanding a bit more about your child's comfort levels into classroom strategies and not just tag her as shy or some generic label. [/quote]
