QBs do not have enough sense to realize that they and their lack of personalities are their own downfall.  The administration and teachers see it, OP.  They have been at it longer than any of us.  Don't worry about bringing the QBs down, they do a fine job themselves.

This is simply not true. All the posters who claim you can somehow rise above their behavior are either kidding themselves or have never experienced this type of social dynamic. It can be brutal. Teachers and administration are on the QB's side in these kinds of schools too.[/quote]

I'm 10:42.  I'm not kidding myself and I have experienced this dynamic.  It's unfortunate there can be unpleasantness or discomfort but I wouldn't call it brutal.  Brutal is seeing your father rage and beat the shit out of your mother.  Brutal is the discussion you have with the trauma surgeon who will operate on your DD.   Brutal is walling off your emotions so you can remain calm while comforting your SN/LD child who feels suddenly realizes he's not like everyone else.  What these QBs do at school doesn't even come close to being brutal.  If you feel that it is, you have no perspective and probably lack confidence.

I also wonder what teachers/administrators do to show they're on the 'QB's side'.  What 'side' is there?  Are they not teaching your kid?  Are they targeting your child?  If so, you have recourse.  I highly doubt QBs have so much influence that your DC would be subjected because of it.  If so, please start a new thread (referencing it here) and I'd be happy to help you address those issues.  As the parent of an SN child, I have a lot of experience working with teachers/administrators that could be doing a better job.[/quote]
