[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 429963, member: 3444"] I'm just tired of people who pay me lip service in person and then try to intimidate my kid when no one's looking. It's absolute BS for ANY adult in this position to treat a student this way. This particular teacher happens to be rather rigid in his thinking anyway. During the IEP when we were specifically discussing the need for accepting late assignments from difficult child 2, this teacher got very flustered and defensive, saying that he has to prepare his students for the IB (International Bacclaureate) program at the GATE high school because they would not survive turning in any late assignments. He completely missed the point that A) he HAS to follow the accomodations agreed upon and B) difficult child 2 is NOT going to that high school, which really is secondary to all of it. All he would focus on is what might happen NEXT year to these students... OMG get OVER it! Focus on the NOW! Not the future when they are no longer your concern!!! I'll be sure to post an update whenever I hear back from someone at the school about this. Just 18 more days... 18 more days... 18 more days... :) [/QUOTE]
