I think my daughters teacher is picking on her?

17 March 2010 8 Responses

A Parent asks, Well my daughter goes to preschool and when she first started there a little boy was telling her disturbing things and not letting her play with her other friends, which has been backed up by one of her friends (he would kick or punch this other girl whenever she would try to play with my daughter). So nauturally i went to her teacher she basically informed me that my daughter was lying she said my daughter is the one that seeks him out so i let it go

Ever since then everytime i go there my daughter is in trouble for some trivial thing which she points out in front of all the other parents and children.

My daughter also dosent like her teacher which is unusual for her she has been in daycare since she was two and never had a behaviuor problem or problem with anyone else.

When there was more trouble with this boy she said to one of the parents ah there was some trouble with aisha thats my daughter, but there was not trouble just that one convo

Any ideas

    Wow. You have alot on your plate. if it is effecting your daughter as much as you say it is, maybe you should talk to the principal about this teacher, and explain your situation. This teacher seems extremely rude. I would know, I have a mom who is a teacher and understand their code of conduct. This teacher is really out of line when she points something out in front of other parents. Thats no one elses buisness. Maybe you should try sitting in on her pre school class for a week, just sitting at the back, just watching and taking notes on what the little boy does and then how the teacher responds. You probably should got to the principal so that he can either change her teacher or talk to the same teacher about her actions. Worse comes to worse, you just do your best to stick it out. There is less then 7o days left of school. I hope this helps and I wish you tons of good luck!!!

    That teacher could get in BIG touble!!!! I work in a daycare but rules are very similar, and parent/child confidentiality is a huge thing!! I would talk to her principal right away about all of this! It sounds like the teacher is not a fan of your child and that is not right at all. see if you can get her switched to a different teacher if the principal doesnt take action on that. Good luck and talk to someone at the school asap!

    the teacher has no business being a teacher. Nonetheless, even parents have their prefered child. It is however unprofessional to point out a child’s misdeeds in front of everyone else. Even if she thinks that she’s lying, she should counsel your child personally.

    have you spoken to the said teacher? situations might be a little different

    Now I am scared to send my daugter to school this year. I have a low tolerance for people…kids, teachers, or anyone messing with my baby. On the serious side I would pop up at the school often without letting her know when you were coming. Walk down to the class and peek in. Teachers are usually not expecting parents for some reason to come to the school. If that does not help talk to other parents whose children have had her. I have to say I would believe my daughter sure kids make things up but how extreme do you think a 3 or 4 year old can be?

    My son had the same type of problem.I told the principal. She had a meeting with all three of us.The principal backed upthe teacher!I went straight to the superintendant.(this principal had a record of siding with teachers even if there were witnesses)Ipulled my kids out of that school and made sure everyone I knew at that school (teachers,parents,etc.)knew about it.From what I hear,many people have asked her to consider retirement.
    All in all,if you’ve got proof,don’t let anyone step on your kids.

    If you went to the teacher with no resolution I would then go to the principal. If you still get no resolution I would see if you can switch teachers. If that is not an option I would go to the administration! Under no circumstances should a teacher ever chose favorites or single out a child. That is morally wrong. Don’t give up! There is no one else to fight for your child but you! Be strong and know that you are in the right! They need to take your concerns seriously and most children that age wouldn’t lie about something like that. So keep going up the chain! Good Luck!!!

    Whoever it was that said to show up at the school often and un-announced~~ that was a VERY good idea! If you are not able to yourself find someone you trust to!

    First, I would start by asking for a meeting between you and the teacher. Then, I would address the fact that there are confidentiality rules that he/she needs to follow. I would also look for another school for your daughter to attend. This behavior (that the teacher) is completely unacceptable. You daughter deserves love, respect and opportunities. I don’t think this school is providing any of that to her. It sounds like that lady needs to lose her license, that is no way for anyone to treat a child. My personal expierence with daycare/ preschool has only been positive, however if my daughter said she didn’t like her teacher, I would remove her from the situation then ask questions. Don’t put your child in a position where she is being treated poorly. It’s not fair. If you feel that this can be resolved, meet with the other parents and express your concerns. Maybe they’ve been dealing with the same thing.
