This is going to sound so petty

[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 90773, member: 3907"] BBK, it's not petty at all. Little things can hurt a lot too (think of a paper cut). Children's sense of right and wrong seems highly attuned to fairness, and Tink is probably more hurt at being treated unfairly than at having her sucker taken away. Incidents like this can hurt for a long time. Once in a while I get an echo of the hurt I felt from one incident, and it's been about 28 years since it happened. Knowing that you stood up for her will help Tink to let go of whatever hurt she's feeling, and not carry it around with her. I agree that a talk with the teacher is due. All the best, and hugs for Tink and you. Trinity [/QUOTE]
