being annoyed with Dd2's teacher for not sorting this out ??

Dd2's class did an assembly this morning about feeling funnily enough.

Dd2 was one of 12 picked to do a dance for the feeling scared bit.

So they all stand there dancing away and then it gets to the part of the song where they pair up and dance and there is no partner for dd. All the pairs carry on dancing away and poor Dd is stood there not knowing where to put herself and eventually the teacher indicated to her to just dance on her own, and bless her she did but she looked so upset and uncomfortable.

Surely the bloody teacher must have realised that someone was away and so there were now only 11 not 12 dancers.

I know I am probably over reacting but I felt so sorry for DD and angry with her bloody unorganised teacher.

Oh and it was a another girl in their class that taught them all the dance, and she was there, why the hell couldn't she have paired up with dd.

You're right, not in that state you aren't.

Love.

harpsichordcarrier · 23/02/2007 16:22

ha! made you look
actually, I think it's a pistol

HappyDaddy · 23/02/2007 16:22

Nutty, I know I'm a complete waste of your time so why do you keep replying to me? I understand your addiction, it's natural.

Hope this will be over soon, I'm nearly out of popcorn.

HappyDaddy · 23/02/2007 16:26

Hehe, I think I will leave this thread. I'm just winder her up now.

Sorry Nutty, couldn't resist.

northerner · 23/02/2007 16:27

Nutty are you OK, you seem rather tense?

I think your dd should be praised for dancing on her own, she did so well bless her. Geting on with things when you are dropped in the shit is one of life's hard lessons

If I were you I would mention to dd'd teacher that you are very proud of her for dealing with the situation.

HappyDaddy · 23/02/2007 16:28

By the way, Nutty, I bet dd danced better than the others anyway.

NuttyMuffins · 23/02/2007 16:30

Not particularly no Northener, but thanks for asking anyway

I knew i'd regret coming back on here.

wow

MrsGoranVisnjic · 23/02/2007 16:37

its not a badger its a beaver

don't you know anything?

Saturn74 · 23/02/2007 16:38

I think your DD should be given a special mention in class for dancing on her own - and a BIG sticker, or whatever her school use for rewarding their pupils.
I can understand how embarrassed and upset she might have been, and how that would upset Nutty too.
I wouldn't make an issue of it with the teacher, but I would suggest she highlights how well your DD did in coping with the situation.

misdee · 23/02/2007 16:49

i am utterly confused yet again!

pointydog · 23/02/2007 17:44

yeah you are being unreasonable. You are the kind of parent who makes hard working teachers despair. I seriously suggest you take a look at how your over the top reaction may impact on your dd Even if you haven't mentioned this to her,it you're this uptight, she'll have picked up the vibe.As i said earlier, some of us hard working teachers don't even get to see our own kids assemblies cos we're so busy looking after everyone else's children. And finally, have you ever stopped to think what the teachers might be saying about you in the staffroom??

edam · 23/02/2007 19:23

Agree with Northerner, tell dd you are proud of her for dancing so well in assembly and coping with a difficult situation.
