So all your kids are assholes?[/quote]

Nailed it.[/quote]
I just don't believe that your meek mild and SUPER INTELLIGENT kids are as innocent and fragile as you do.  I seem to have met a few kids. [/quote]

What are you talking about? Who said anything about "super intelligent" or "perfect" or "meek" or "mild"??  You are making several inaccurate assumptions that are proving you to be an issue.  The apple does not fall far from the tree - address your problems, stay in your lane - but don't think anyone is going to babysit your kid. [/quote]
My kids don't need babysitting, thanks. You keep calling the principal because you think the teacher is picking on your snowflake. [/quote][/quote]

I don't understand?  WHO keeps calling the principal?  About what?

If there is a parent that is complaining about your child, or worse, multiple parents - you would not address the issue?

I am not talking about normal teen behavior, or who texted what to who, or micromanaging - we all know who those parents are. I am talking about your child disrupting the classroom or disrupting someone's right to learn [b]during school hours[/b].  I know there are parents who might do what you said/claimed, and yes, they carry zero credibility with the school.  But, so does a parent like you who is overly defensive and perhaps not stable.  Perhaps me responding to you is a complete waste of time, but maybe you will see beyond your limited scope. I am not hopeful.

Every student has a right to learn, not just yours.  [/quote]
And kids that yours don't like have just as much right to be there as your lovely little snowflake. For every 'you' who calls and bitches that Larlita cannot possibly learn if she has to sit next to Larlo, there is a Larlo who still needs a place to sit.  The teacher doesn't assign Larlita to sit there because she thinks Larlita is an angel from heaven sent to influence Larlo. She assigned Larlita to sit there because if Larlita sits next to her nest buddy, Larla, she's passing notes all day. Or more randomly because her name was next in the alphabet.  Homeschooling can solve all your issues, but you can't demand any kid be removed from a public school classroom.[/quote]

[b]Actually, you are incorrect. I taught for 20 years and I would often seat a disruptive/trouble maker with the quiet, studious, well behaved kids. Not because I wanted to screw my good students, but because I knew they could keep up their grades despite distractions.   Now if a student asked to be moved because she couldn’t handle the distractions, I would absolutely oblige. I’ve had a couple of kids that were so incredibly disruptive that I had to keep rotating them from table to table throughout the year so that no kid had them at their table for too long. I received massive amounts of complaints from parents about these particular teens. I completely understood, but I had to seat them somewhere, and I received, unfortunately, very little support from their parents.[/b][/quote]
