[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are letting your daughter off too easily. She knew she wasn't supposed to use that calculator which is why she showed it to the teacher. She just expected she would get special treatment and that the rules did not apply to her. Hmm wonder why that is?[/quote] OP, I have to agree with this poster. You have set your daughter up to feel that her slight problem will excuse her for having to obey rules that are intended for her good. You don't want her to appear before a panel of her peers because you already believe it will make her cry, embarrass her and be psychologically damaging. Is that the expectation you have set for her? If so, she will probably fulfill your expectations by behaving as you want her to. Just because she has a slight problem, doesn't mean there aren't consequences which will teach her how to function much better in the world than your protectionism.[/quote]
