[quote=Anonymous]How hard is it for parents to understand teachers need a recess break too. They need to go to the bathroom, grab a snack, and prep for next lesson.

This is why an email like this is annoying:

[i]Me: Hi, Larla has been having issues with Marla at recess -- Marla keeps pressuring Larla to play a physical game that Larla doesn't want to play and Larla has asked many times for Marla to leaver her out of it but Marla isn't getting the message. Can you check on them and just make sure Marla understands that if Larla says no, she needs to observe that boundary?[/I]

First, no the teacher is not going to give up recess to go watch your child.

Secondly, so what if a student is telling another student to play a game she doesn't want to play?  Tell your kid to walk away and there won't be an issue. Instead she keeps hanging around the kid you don't want her around. How can you not see how ridiculous it would be for a teacher to go up to another kid and put all the blame on that kid. It sounds more like kids are playing and your kid doesn't like what they are playing so wants to play something else. Nowhere in your email is your child being teased, hit/pushed, excluded, etc. This is why your emails aren't going anywhere and the teacher finds them annoying.
