ok...ive decided i want to do a PGCE to teach secondary, so i have started volunteering at dds primary year 5; she is year 3
i have a physical deformity which is not blindingly obvious immediately; some people notice it straight off, it has taken some friends a couple of years to notice (they could be being polite i suppose. but its ugly, and getting worse with age
ive spoken to dd about it before; she looks blank and doesnt know what im taking about. i suppose ive always had it and always been her mum so maybe she doesnt see it
anyway some of the year 5 kids have noticed. some have asked me about it politely and some have expressed a bit of horror/disgust.
im worried that this is going to lead to problems/embarrassment for dd. And am considering not doing the PGCE afterall
its more WWYD i suppose? how would you handle it?
