VLOG: MY SON HAS A PROBLEM AT SCHOOL (ADVICE NEEDED)
I know that we all have had problems with our children’s teachers. Elijah is having a problem at school and I’m about this far from blowing a gasket. Seriously. So I need everyone’s advice. How do you deal with your children’s teacher when you have an ongoing problem with him/her? I also talk about getting my couponing on and then I end with a little dialect meme. I would love to hear how you say some of these words.

I feel so so bad for your son. We moved at the beginning of the 4th grade and my daughter was just like your son. She loved school and her teachers. Then when we moved she got and older crusty teacher and didn’t like going anymore. You have more to deal with, kids calling him names. My daughter was just quiet and made it thru that grade and then in the 5th grade she was the teachers pet! She loved her 5th grade teacher she is 20 now and will still say Mr Wheeler was her favorite teacher. I hope that happens for Elijah and the problem is just the teacher and not the whole school. This is such a horrible experience for such a little guy. I get you have to stand up for yourself but I’m not sure about the calling names back. Maybe if you got him into a sport like Baseball, my son played with the YMCA if you have one near you or maybe karate or something to build confidence so he can just say you aint nobody what you say doesn’t matter to anyone trying to tear him down.
Good Luck on you meeting can’t wait to hear how it goes.

As a mother of 4 I so feel you on wanting to get to the bottom of the bullying (yes, I said it) that your son is having to be subjected to. My 11year old daughter went through the same thing when she started a new school last year. After numerous meetings with her teacher and eventually with the assistant-principal (who told me that my daughter needed to have thicker skin), I was livid and took matters into my own hands. I told her if anyone said anything threatening to her or hit her,kicked her or anything like that to yell as loud as she could to bring attention to the situation. Before I told her that, the teacher would just ignore her when she tried to tell what was going on… I had a teacher even tell me that my daughter was just being a “tattle-tell”!! My advice to you is to be visible at the school. Volunteer, go on field trips, or just have lunch with your son at the school once a week if you can. Let that school know that you are an involved parent and that you will be there for your child
I hope everything works out for him.
