[QUOTE="buddy, post: 561446, member: 12886"] I think her attitude about people who are not working (outside of the home) is far more damaging than being around someone who has lost a job! First, as you said, finding a job flipping burgers is not easy when you have a level of education or training or experience that puts you in a category where they say you are overqualified. Second, looking for a job does not mean you have to leave the house these days. People get unemployment insurance and can't just take any job while they are looking until there comes a point where it is truly necessary, there are too many rules, (my sister went through that for two years --luckily got extensions etc.)But mostly....as others have said, that is just so NONE OF HER BUSINESS. difficult child's saying that to me would have been met with a heads up to you and asking how you would like me to address such comments....ignore or educate on how being a parent is a full time job too, etc. That is something a parent should take the lead on and her attitude makes me wonder if she is overcompensating for feeling guilty that she doesn't spend enough time with her kids (if she has some)? ...probably she is just a judgmental you know what. I'd go to her direct Special Education supervisor before a principal, just mho because they have more contact and direct impact on her job reviews. [/QUOTE]
