[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CC'ing the principal after only 24 hours is kind of intense [/quote] And makes you look like a whack job. It might be wrong- but we laugh about parents like you. [/quote] Honestly, I don't care if you laugh at me; it just reflects your lack of professionalism. [b] I can assure you that supervisors above you take note of your lack of response and snickering and it is a detriment to your career progress and opportunities[/b].[/quote] Not the PPP, but my supervisor laughs at whack job parents too. EVERYONE laughs at the handful of super intense helicopter moms, and none of us take those moms seriously. The whack job moms have put themselves into a terrible position because admin will never take them seriously now.[/quote] I don't care if you "take me seriously." I do care if you follow the law. If you are doing something wrong, I will attempt to get in touch with you and ask you what is happening and why. If you can't be professional and get back to me in a day or so, I am going to your boss. If you and your boss remain unresponsive or imappropriately responsive, I will reach up further. As a special needs parent, I am sick of the bullying that my child and I are expected to tolerate. I don't care if you think I'm a pain or if you snicker or laugh at me. The law obligates you to do certain things and if you can't or won't, I will complain until I get what my child needs and is owed under the law. The law isn't only for nice, polite good girl women who ask for things politely and butter you up and beg and wait and plead. The sexism inherent in the PITA mom stereotype bugs the crap out of me, especially because the staffers who wield that sexism as a weapon are teachers and admin who are typically women. PITA mom is just a school-based version of being called a bitch or bossy.[/quote] Way to combat sexism- with sexism. You don't like the assumption that all helicopters are moms-but are fine portraying the school teachers & admin as women. [/quote]
