[quote=Anonymous]Simple answers:

Your child has been disruptive from day one and the teacher was fed up.  Believe it or not, teachers do not have time to report every single infraction to you they deal with on a daily basis.

Your "bright" child can and does misbehave. Being bright does not always equal being social savvy or being able to behave appropratiately.

Kids tease.  They just do. Your bright, sensitive daughter does it too. She may be of the ilk that can dish it out but not take it.  Don't bother saying "no!!! not my sweet snowflake - she would never do that!" They all do it.

It sounds like your kids is having control issues - she wants to control the other kids, she wants to control the teacher, she wants to control the environment.

I think the hardest thing about K for many parents is realizing that their special snowflake actually can't meet the social and institutional demands of school.  After all, he/she was reading Harry Potter at their very advanced preschool....[/quote]
