[QUOTE="Andy, post: 324411, member: 5096"] I agree that a caring teacher makes for an easier success. difficult child's teacher in 5th grade when all H.... hit the fan in negative behaviors had him in a younger grade and watched him grow up. She was awesome! And I mean the most patient person. Very very very positive in the discipline area. She also had faith in how I handled difficult child's inappropriate behaviors. His teacher knew that whatever he was dealing with that HE had the ability to get through it. HE had the ability to turn his life around. She knew he did not want to be the terror he had become. It was a very hard year for the school. When you are in a very small day school, everyone is involved with all other kid's behaviors. Other parents were concerned that difficult child went on an all school field trip three hours away without a parent (it was Diva's High School graduation day and I wanted her dad and I to both be there for her). The teacher had NO concerns and she was right. There was just a very minor incident on the way back into town but she was able to divert it before it grew into trouble. Yes, I really do believe that a large part of difficult child's success has been because of who he had as his main teacher that year. She would apologize to me whenever she had to report something saying that she hated to always be telling me bad news but the other teachers believed I should know everything and for that year they were correct. Even though it hurt me so bad knowing what was happening and what difficult child was putting the school through, I would not have been able to help put and end to it if I had not known. Your difficult child is blessed to have a caring teacher. She is really looking at who he is as a person. What his soul and heart is like. She sees past the negative behaviors and sees the positive person that your child is. She sees what makes him special. I wrote a very long and detailed thank you to my difficult child's teacher when the year was over. Your difficult child's teacher may enjoy a nice Christmas card with a few words of how much you appreciate her treating your child as the person he can be instead of only seeing the negative behaviors.
