[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is insane that this random mom is allowed to “teach.” I would go to the principal and explain that this is a train wreck and she is now relating info about your kid and ask whether she is subject to FERPA, and if not, why is she allowed to teach.[/quote]

And let me add, PE is EXACTLY where young children should burn off their energy and run around. Assuming he isn’t eloping, pushing other kids, etc — just let the freaking kid run around the room. [/quote]

He's not bothering anyone. He's just running around the tree with the other ADHD kid in the class, they chase each other, while the rest of the kids are standing in a circle doing arm circles or leg kicks or whatever. He gets in trouble for now following directions and listening. I think that this volunteer (I believe she gets a small stipend actually) gives him a grade because on his report card there is a grade for PE.[/quote]

You are doing your child a HUGE disservice by not teaching them to follow directions and writing this off as oh it’s not bothering anyone. [/quote]
I am the most authoritative parent on this forum. The kid needs to program to learn to read, write and do arithmetic. At the end of they day all of his "pay attention" neurotransmitters are gone. This is not an age-appropriate ask. Back in the day when kids got their knuckles hit with a ruler for not paying attention education did not start until age 7 and recess was unstructured. Nobody was asking a 5 year old to do downward facing dog in 1900. Modern education has gone off the rails. [/quote]

Yes, it is an appropiate ask.[/quote]
