Just got back from taking DD to school.
She is in reception and has just started back on Monday where she is now doing full days until 3pm.
She is still having issues with using the school's toilets so for the time being she is taking pull ups into school with her but is reluctant for anyone to change her at lunchtime.
This morning her teacher had a word with me in front of DD and said she would'nt let anyone take her to the toilet yesterday and was she ok when she got home.
I said yes she was fine.
She then proceeded to say we need to get her to use the toilet so will take her today and show her around the cloakroom but admited most of the children don't like the cloakrooms so she would take her to another toilet.
DD got very anxious at that point and was looking worried and the teacher said
"come on E.... ,we will try it today"
to which DD replied "no" quite firmly.
Then suddenly the teacher grabbed DD's hand and started pulling her into class saying you can come in on your own today without mummy as you have just been very rude.
DD was really upset and tried to pull away and she was pulling her the other way.
I insisted on taking her in to vcalm her down and the teacher followed us telling another TA on the way
"E.... has just been very rude"
I managed to get her into class but she was very teary.
I am so annoyed that the teacher dealt with this this way as DD has been happy to go back to school the last couple of days after the holidays which can be difficult but has been full of herself after school and really enjoying it.
I just hope this teacher has'nt worried her now and she will be reluctant to go to school tomorrow.
After I took her in I saw the teacher again on the way out and she said
"Oh she's gone in has she,what a little madam"
Am I being unreasonable?
DD is 4 and still finding her feet at school and feel that this could have been handled better.
I did'nt appreiciate the madam comment or her dragging her into class ethier.
Maybe it's just me feeling hormonal but thought I would see what others thought.

To think that DD's teacher was a bit harsh this morning?
