*************To be fuming at a teacher's remark*************

Ds 6 caught his finger in a door on Sunday, I had hi at the doctor on Monday as puss had built up, she burst it, has hi on antibiotics. Anyway yesterday after school he said a teacher remarked that he needed a bath. Granted said nail of finger is dirty but he won't let me near it. The rest of his finger is bruised.

He said when the teacher realised he had a sore finger she told his class teacher about it. I had already explained to his teacher about his finger. Am I getting my knickers in a twist over nothing? Is this just a misunderstanding? Should I say something?

Don't worry about it! Someone helpfully pointed out that ds1 (2.11) bites his nails (as if I didn't know fgs) and I felt the ground opening up beneath me as if a toddler who bites his nails is somehow a reflection on my parenting skills.

I think I paid a trip to paranoid city and had visions of the teachers suggesting that my child was dirty.
