No, you chose to dump on the teacher.


I'm not sure what post you read, but the one I read only said this about the teacher, "Teacher is fantastic, DC LOVES teacher". If that is considered dumping on the teacher, you guys can dump on me anytime.

Folks, the OP has a legitimate concern. There is probably nothing she can do about it, but no need to attack her.


Is there another posted titled "grrr...pregnant teacher?"

OP, our DD has a teacher who had her baby in the spring two years ago. They brought in a great LT sub who was already working in the school as an aide. She loved her and all was well.

THIS is why young people don't want to go into teaching. Even fantastic teachers get crapped on for daring to have a life outside the classroom.

+1, why should the teacher have a right to start her own family. you even liked her and she is doing this to you.

Do parents have any ability to influence the selection of a good long-term sub for when the teacher goes on leave. I'm really worried about what may come & will hit middle of the school year. The usual subs are usually 1/2 decent at best.


You cannot be serious. What makes you think you would be a good judge of the appropriate sub??

Legit concern, but, life happens and there's nothing you can do about it. Teach your child to stop this perpetual cycle of a woman having a baby being inherently wrong or a huge inconvenience to everyone and celebrate it!

If this only happens to your child once in your DC's school career you will be lucky.

Nothing you can do about getting a 'good' sub.

Your child will survive it.

Hope that you got a better reception from your colleagues or clients when you announced you were pregnant.

Not your concern. The school will do their best to find the best candidate to serve of the available candidates.
