[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am guessing that she misunderstood your telling her often of K's behavior/discipline problems as being that you don't know how to handle them or didn't like having the issues. Especially if she kept apologizing for them and saying it won't happen again. From a parent's perspective, when our kid was in preschool and had a tough time adjusting (for a long time, like 5 months), we got sick and tired of hearing about what he did wrong when we picked him up. We kept apologizing but pulled him out as soon as we could and found another school because we felt like if it was a big enough deal, then call us when it happens to deal with it, but if you dealt with it, why tell us over and over and over again. There was nothing we could do about it after the fact - so it just made us feel awful. I'm not saying you did anything wrong, but if the mom kept apologizing, she may be feeling what we felt. That she just wants someone that could handle the usual normal bahavior problems without making it a conversation each day and only report to her the big deal stuff. [/quote] This is what I thought as well. Also, maybe it was the parents thinking you were not bonding well with the 11 yr old and that their daughter really just needed someone else that she could bond with to work with her. So maybe it was more about their daughter than you specifically, you just weren't a good match for the child?[/quote]
