Why?


Because a psychologist is a doctor.


NP. Psychologists don't have medical degrees, so they'd need to have a doctorate to go by Dr. Many school psychologist don't have doctorates and typically don't go by Dr. unless they do. Your problem is with very common usage.

I can't even begin to understand your concern. Of course I'd allow it. I might check in with my child if anything at school is bothering her, but it doesn't even seem like that's an issue.

It common for kids to find safe spaces to eat lunch to avoid lunch room drama.

I assume that’s OP not outing the persons real name.
I would be ok with it OP as long as the psychologist is.

My kid always ate in a teacher’s classroom. I love it-the cafeteria is chaotic and that’s where any fights that happen break out. I wouldn’t want to eat in there either.

That’s awesome! The cafeteria is horrible, I’d be thrilled that my child found an alternative.

I forgot to ask this in "real time". In May I got a text saying "Hello, this is Ms. X the school psychologist at XYX Middle School. Just wanted to let you know that [Your DD] and some of her friends have been finding their way to my office and eating lunch here lately- I'm usually just working quietly in the background while they hang out and socialize among themselves. I think they just like coming because it's a little more quiet and less chaotic than the cafeteria, haha. I absolutely don't mind at all and I'm glad they've found a space they enjoy spending lunch in- just wanted to let you know in case she'd mention it or something that she's eating lunch in the school psychologist office and I didn't want you to be concerned or anything. Hopefully that makes sense! Let me know if you have any questions or concerns, thanks!!!"

Would you be OK with this? Just want to prepare for next school year.
