Today, difficult child decided to wear his new football jersey underneath his uniform shirt. Fridays are church days, so the kids not only wear khaki pants, belts, dress shoes, and white shirts, but they also wear ties and sportcoats.
Gft wore a white dress shirt over the jersey, then put on a school sweatshirt over that, so he did not need to wear a tie. (Supposedly.) It was 35 degrees.
His homeroom teacher saw it, and said she'd let it go this time.
The math and science teacher saw it, and wrote him up for it. He told her that the homeroom teacher let it go, and the response was, "You're in my room right now, not hers."
Aaargh. So much for consistency.
She's the one who's been so hard on difficult child from the get-go. She's a dismal dump of a person and I've only seen her smile twice all yr. (I suspect she's right up there with-the school counselor on the other thread who talks about idiot-savants.)
I realize difficult child is doing horribly in math (he's picking up a bit in science) but I think she's making things worse by honing in on anything and everything he does wrong. You can bet that other kids--"A" students--get away with-murder.
If difficult child is asked to leave on Mon at the mtng, I will be as relieved as he is that we don't have to deal with-her any more. Obviously, the feeling is mutual. I think she believes that difficult child was put on this planet solely to annoy her.
Too bad difficult child now has two girls who like him in class and he's actually making friends ...
Some day, if difficult child is a famous football player or computer programmer, I'm going to mail her a newspaper announcement about him ...
