[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has definitely not been our worst year with public education.  Our worst year was in 4th grade, with a teacher who refused to make accommodations for my son's ADHD 504 plan and who belittled him for his issues.  This year has been a much safer year emotionally.[/quote]

Yes, having them zoomed into our homes has really unmasked the weak teachers.[/quote]

From what I hear, zooming into homes has also really unmasked the weak parents. [/quote]

I kinda agree with that. The sanctimonious supermom in our social circle had a complete meltdown in October. Lots of ranting on FB and sending group texts. I think I’ve recognized her as the OP of a couple DCUM threads.  And she doesn’t even have little kids. She has a 6th grader in a magnet program and a ninth grader on the same magnet program as my DD.

Despite her claims of being a highly engaged parent and crushing it as a GirlBoss, it’s obvious that she was not used to checking that her kids turned in work or studied.[/quote]

You don’t come off too well in your telling of this story either. You sound very judgy. [/quote]

Almost this entire thread is judge. But really just following her playbook for the past 11, almost 12 years. I’ve largely been spared her criticism because she wanted certain things from me, but she has really been scathing in her treatment of other parents that she thought were not prioritizing education over other aspects of their lives. As soon as she was asked to prioritize education, she turned her venom on MCPS. The funniest part is that her image of doing so much better than anyone else financially also fell apart as she had to admit she couldn’t afford even Catholic school when people told her about openings.[/quote]

have you considered not being friends with someone you hate?[/quote]

DP...This reminds me of the "Queen Bee" mom in the neighborhood. Everyone knows her, she's always posting on social media . She's not that nice.[/quote]
