[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] “WAH! Why don’t you say this so I can sue the school?” You’re absurd.[/quote] Honestly? I have kids of my own and a mortgage. Just like everyone else, I am going to protect myself first. Sorry, I am human and my ability to live the rest of my life is simply more important than other people’s kids. [/quote] I’m a teacher who posted above. This is why I quit working at one school. I was threatened with legal action even though I calmly and repeatedly explained I can’t perform a task the family required. They may as well have asked me to move a mountain or drain an ocean; I didn’t have the time, ability, or access to resources to do what they wanted. I quit to protect myself. I knew the demands were going to escalate and no reason or logic on my part was going to make a difference. I loved that school and would have preferred staying, but my health and family have to come first. [/quote] Threatened *you* with legal action or threatened MCPS with legal action while talking to you? Almost certainly the latter. Why would that be bad? The only way MCPS will begin to staff special education appropriately is if they begin to lose lawsuits.[/quote] Threatened ME. [/quote]
