[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a teacher but man, OP is obnoxious.  I can't even imagine how horrible her kid is. [/quote]

I'm sure the kid is fine.  It sounds like the relationship was fine until recently.  The parent is obviously overreacting here, but I'm sure the teacher is a professional and would not do something morally, ethically, and professionally wrong like failing a student in retribution for rudeness or arrogance from a parent (and, "poetic justice" poster, you should know better).  We all know parents who are a trial for the school admin and the teachers, and 99% of the time the teachers are able to separate their relationship with the child from the toxic parent.

OP, you've taken some shots (and given quite a few as well).  Take some deep breaths and realize that the teacher herself was not replying to any of these posts, so you shouldn't allow this to escalate because you got taken to the woodshed on DCUM when (it appears) you thought you'd only get affirmation.  The best suggestion was to try to talk to the teacher face to face if the issues are ongoing -- that usually allows people to see the best in the other person and get past the misunderstandings or ambiguities of email.[/quote]
