[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 342299, member: 7916"] Oh, I do feel for you! We were (nearly) in a similar position last year. My son was in kindergarten at the time and some parents decided to contact the media about his behavior. Several TV news outlets followed up on it by calling the school district spokesperson, who was able to squash the story. At the time, my husband and I consulted with a friend who does PR and drafted a statement to provide the media. It is just shoddy journalism to print what other parents think without even bothering to contact you. In your position, I would want to have a fit and have my side told, but in the end I would have to swallow my rage (or, more likely, grind my teeth in rage) and let it go. Since they didn't print his name, I don't think you can do anything. But, I do think you have a right to see that video tape. That is just one more reason you need an attorney so he can file all the motions necessary to make the school give you access to that piece of evidence. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
