[quote=Anonymous]19:46, I'm a teacher and I reject your characterization of the parent as being "super defensive." The comment is a red flag -- perhaps the teacher is not always abusive but it was not okay, particularly for a relatively young student. I don't believe in feeding kids praise when their work deserves criticism, and I think many parents overreact to what is just an honest critique of work, but this really isn't a close call in my professional judgment. Different people perceive things differently, so I would not criticize you as a parent if you did not react to such a comment, but I do not agree with your assessment of the OP's response. [/quote]
