[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is awful that OP's daughter wet her pants.  Absolutely awful.

[b]However, I can understand the teacher's position.  Kids (even elementary) use the bathroom as an excuse to just leave the room.  Go wander the school, whatever.  We've had teachers who don't allow bathroom breaks during instruction.  I don't have a problem with that.  Kids are encouraged to go (as others have said) before school, at breaks, during lunch and after school[/b].

OP obviously a discussion with the teacher is necessary.   Make sure too that your daughter knows that if it really is an emergency, she should just go.[/quote]

Op here. They were doing seat work. The first time she asked she was told no. Several minutes later she asked again (which to me should have given the teacher a hint that my daughter [i]really[/i] did have to go!) she was told no again. My daughter always goes in the morning before school. I don't know if she goes during the class bathroom breaks or not. Every teacher she's had before this one has allowed kids to go to the bathroom whenever they need to. I don't remember ever hearing my daughter talk about class bathroom breaks. I remember my teachers doing this in elementary school, but my daughter never told me about it and the first I heard of it was when I spoke to the teacher. This teacher is very controlling and I'm glad the year is almost over. [/quote]
