psychmom Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I had a mom tell me today that her ds' first grade teacher wants to hold him back next year. The mom told the teacher how well he is doing in after-school tutoring, where they describe him as the "star" of the group. The teacher's response? "Well, he's the best of the worst." This just about made me scream!! I know most teachers are not this thoughtless, but it seems that when they are, parents are so powerless to protect their children. Just had to vent a little...
