[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13:43 again -- It's worth noting that in some communities, calling someone "son" is equivalent to patronizing them. (There's actually an urban dictionary entry on "sonning" someone.)[/quote] I am not sure what communities you are referring to, but to me calling someone "son" is indeed patronizing. And ignoring someone's request to use his first name just proves that that's what this teacher is doing. I also agree with your previous post about getting OP's son help to become more resilient to disrespectful behavior such as this, and specifically to learn to cope with the absence of his father.[/quote]
