[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you have a child with behavioral issues, you have no idea what it's like. The condescending attitude from other "helpful" parents is the worst. Yes, we have rules at home and are consistent with discipline, yes he is on medication and sees a psychiatrist, yes we are doing everything we possibly can to help. We love our child just as much as you love yours. To assume that we're not working on his problem and to shun us socially is just mean.

PP, I totally get where you're coming from, but please try to see this from the point of view of the parents of the 20+ other kids in your DC's class. We hear this story from one side only, and that is the (often distorted) reports from our kids. When they come home in tears and with reports of being hit or shoved by the same child repeatedly, wouldn't your first reaction be, "why can't the school keep my kid safe from that child?"

We may not know you. We don't know that you have rules at home, we certainly don't know the medical situation, we aren't told anything by the school because of well-intended "privacy concerns." This is an unfortunate consequence of the detached world we live in. We have no idea how you're raising your child; all we see is the end result.[/quote]
