Can't quite decide if im over reacting or my anger is justified. Here it is:
Last fri DS had a head injury at school, i was called to collect him. He had a gaping wound in his head, i took him to the hospital and it was sorted. No problems, shit happens.
Then from mon afternoon he starts complaining of headache. Same on tue, i sent him to school after giving him nurofen/calpol. Wed i kept him at home as headache seemed to be worse. Thu (yesterday) childminder took him to school and i phoned school explaining that he's been having headaches and could they please call me if he complains again as im worried. i was reasured it will be done. I then receive a call from cm at pick up time- apparently he came out in floods of tears (and saying his head is hurting) and his teacher said he was 'out of sorts' all day.
I was fuming they did not call me after i specifically asked them to if he has another headache. Called the office to be told he was ok all day and only got worse at pick up time (which doesnt tally with his teachers words 'he's been out of sorts all day').
So to me it seems like him being unwell was simply ignored which i think is unacceptable! Fine kids complain of all sorts but he had a head injury on their premises and surely headaches following the injury should be taken more seriously (especially when a parent expresses concern and asks to be contacted if they happen)?...
Or am i being too precious and fuming over nothing? I took him to ae in the end and he was fine however what if he wasn't?.. Cant help but think his teacher showed a rather poor judgement...or aibu?
