[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 590579, member: 3419"] I spoke with-him after school and he said that when he handed in the papers, he told the teacher that he shouldn't have thrown the paper away and that it was a stupid mistake. Supposedly she said, "I can poll the class and see whose papers are here. Only you and X are missing." difficult child said he fired back, "You can poll the entire row of kids right there and ask them if they saw me do the work in class!" (That sounds exactly like his type of argument.) Supposedly she said, "You are so manipulative! You're just working the system." I can see getting so mad that you would say that in the heat of the moment. And difficult child can be manipulative. But in front of the other students? NOT professional. Also, her 3rd email to me said, "He seemed confused. He confuses me! lol!" I guess she was trying to lighten it up, but their comments are so diametrically opposed ... When the year began, this was his favorite class and she was his favorite teacher. Now, he hates her. Even more than his Earth Science teacher, because the Earth Science teacher is just confusing and pressuring, but this teacher "disrespected me in front of everyone." Sigh. I emailed the school counselor today and I am thinking it's time to see what's going on with that child study ... [/QUOTE]
