[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 598033, member: 14557"] CB: I don't think IC means you would accuse your daughter of bad attitude when she is there to hear it. But if you, in your own mind, start to word it like school words it and think of it as a bad attitude, you have already lost half a battle with school to actually treat her issues and not just label her as a kid with the bad attitude. This is something I have to check myself all the time. And my difficult child is an adult and certainly able to have a bad attitude and at times does have one. But it is so easy cop-out for me and everyone else to just consider this and that and that as a bad attitude and shove the problem back to him even when it is not about attitude or at least it is not something he has tools to change. Your kid is younger, and because of that, bad attitude is mostly just an unacceptable cop-out from school's part and something you shouldn't let get yourself sucked into. I understand things can be difficult because you work in same school she goes, but still, as a mother, you should not accept cop-outs from school's part. [/QUOTE]
