[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some kids are O & D because their teacher sucks sms treats them badly. I have worked with elementary kids for many years and seen this more than a few times. The school will never admit a teacher sucks and treats kids badly. However, sometimes they will approve a transfer to another class. Sounds like that might be what happened to your kid. They might characterize it as a personality conflict, and although some other kids might tolerate the lousy teacher better than your kid that doesn't make the situation your kid's fault.[/quote]

Nope sorry. I've worked with kids for many years too. You can't blame the teacher for this one. Yes, a bad teacher can cause anxiety, etc, but ity is abnormal for a teacher to cause a child without ODD to suddenly hit, tantrum, and do other aggressive things unless we are talking about 2 year olds or at least younger kids or sexual abuse, physical abuse or significant emotional abuse (not teacher yelling at class now and then). I think it does a huge disservice to this child to blame the teacher rather than get him the level of help he needs.[/quote]
