[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP version 1 of story:

"The school counselor must have said something to their teacher and teacher said something to child. The other mom reached out to both the school and me. I declined the meeting and said to the other mom that this is not a big deal and hope girls can work it out themselves."

Op version 2 of story:

"I declined to have a meeting with the school. I had 2 conversations with parents, including one with the father. The father called and went to the school. The teacher called me after the father went to the school as did the school counselor. Even their teacher told me she was surprised the family requested a school meeting. I told the mom that they were making a small event bigger than it needs to be. I did not log a complaint against their kid."

[b]OP this is inconsistent and leads me to believe you are not telling the full story OR that you are a bad communicator generally which has contributed to this issue.[/b]

Also now I am wondering what the underlying issue is. I am now thinking of a situation with one of my kids that was originally described as excluding behavior but turned out to be something more complicated. I actually did still land on "let's see if the kids can work this out on their own" and in the end it did work out and was a growth experience for my child for sure and hopefully for the other child as well. But it was very useful as a parent to have gotten the full story from my kid, the other parents, AND the school because everyone had different information and sharing that info helped everyone better understand what was happening and support both kids through the situation.[/quote]

Very much this.[/quote]
