That would crush a kid.

It’s not even fair because a kid can need more work in one area and absolutely KILL it in another. A kid who needs more help with math might be an amazing little writer. But this mom just says he’s “the lowest 4” based on a couple observations. Ugh. I wish she’d reflect on that and why it’s such a sad and rigid way of viewing kids, who are complex little beings who deserve to learn without judgment from ADULTS, but she won’t.

Exactly. It’s one thing to have observed. It’s another to label and be relieved that they aren’t going back. Those are the kids who need it more than your spawn.

Where was I relieved? I know you need to think that I’m some outlier weirdo, but I’m not. If this wasn’t completely anonymous I would say any of this

That’s because you know it’s wrong.

“ The remaining class will actually be easier to manage now. ”

Is that untrue?

I hope not but the one mom who keeps doubling down is making me question. You really, as an outside person, cannot and should not be judging other people’s kids academic capabilities based on what you overhear in an online classroom. I strongly dislike the idea parents think they can say things like who in their kid’s class are “low.” That phrasing alone is problematic, I only use it because she did, specifically saying “the lowest 4” aren’t going in.

Going after teachers is one thing. Listening and watching and then thinking you can judge other people’s small kids is another. Bothers me a lot.

I don’t have an educational background so I don’t know the better way to phrase it. It’s very clear that some kids are behind. It does not take a checklist to notice which kids are always being called to work with a support teacher. The kids who need the most help are not going in person. You can say I’m a terrible person for noticing that, but it’s true.

Ok well at least you know you’re pretty terrible for talking about other people’s kids like this. Maybe some mom in your class is saying similar things about your son. You would be fine with that of course since his academics and behavior is up for other people to judge.
