[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been told that because I am "only a teacher" I am not as qualified as the parent - the spouse of a pediatrician - to make observations on behavior trends I witnessed in the classroom. I was not attempting to make a diagnosis or anything clinical, simply raised issues with poor emotional regulation and other classroom issues with peers. The best part is this woman doesn't have a health care background, she was simply married to a doctor. Her husband was pleasant but disengaged. She actually told me that I "probably wasn't intelligent enough" to complete a degree in a more challenging field. [/quote] Weird, rude, and totally misguided - so sorry that happened to you. I specifically ask my kids' teachers what they're seeing because apart from DH and me, no one else spends as much time with them, sees them behave in as many different situations, or knows them as well![/quote]
