Well, I just had the worse day of my teaching career! I have dealt with a student in my class that refuses to cooperate, follow rules, adjust to school, etc..... since day 1!! Mom is in denial and after having meeting after meeting with her on numerous times with admin. she came after me today and verbally attacked me, in spanish of course, and even though I couldn't understand her exact words, I heard her loud and clear!! (as did others that were around) Finally, another teacher went into the office and told them that I need an administrator out there ASAP. As they came out I left and told whomever was around, "I was done with that mom!!" It was her kid or me that was going to leave! Well, of course my fabulous administrators came in and told me, "well, it sure isn't you, she is nuts!" I agreed!! What it boils down to is this, her kid is a spoiled rotten kid that is allowed to do as he pleases and gets away with whatever at home, so as to not create problems with mom, and then he thinks he can do it in my class as well. I say NO! you have to follow rules just like the rest of the class. He doesn't like to do that! So he gets in trouble and mom thinks I need to be PATIENT with him, HELLO, it's NOVEMBER already, been patient enough! I wouldn't allow this behavior with my own grandkids, and I LOVE THEM!!! Anyway, Principal put him in another class and I know his life will become even more hellish, cuz, this teacher speaks spanish and will not put up with him or mom and their ridiculous excuses. So we will see how long he actually stays in our school. Cuz, by the way, he is an inter district transfer, with 12 tardies thus far in the year!!! Well, thanks for reading and sharing my anguish today! Tomorrow should be a breeze!! Oh, and I might add, when mom picked up her little 'angel', she gave me the dirtiest looks ever, whatever, go get a real life lady!
SO I am off to help John at the blood bank, later!

Oh my the joys of being a teacher. I could never do it. You are a better person then me. But look on the bright side he is gone :) Is sucks sometimes to be the grown up. Good for you for not letting that lady have it!!! I know you would have if you could. Love ya
You go! Good for you and standing up. That mom sounds psycho. At least it got the kid out of your class that's the good part. I am sure your days will be much easier.
YEAH FOR YOU!!!! That sound you hear, way off in the distance, is me clapping my heart out! I WISH, that there were more people and teachers like you. When did we get to the point that the kids are allowed to dictate policy? You are amazing, and any kid in your class is lucky to have you! I would have loved to have you as my childrens teacher! LOL!
And you think my kids are bad!!!! Whatever, she needs to know her kid is annoying and a brat!! I hadn't even heard that story...I could tell you were soo mad. I can't even remember if you have ever gotten yelled at by a parent in all your teaching career??? Well, good riddens.....feel sorry for the next teacher..
So sorry about that mom. Man, some of those parents can really be scarey. I had one parent threaten me my first year of teaching because I failed his son and he couldn't participate in graduation. I gave that kid and the parents everything he needed to do to graduate and he didn't do it. What can you do. They have to suffer the consequences. He threatened me all up and down. It was very scarey, but in the end he couldn't do anything. I had all the documentation to support my decision. But that doesn' take away from the stress of it. So Sorry!
