To think this teacher’s overreaction may cause trouble for DS?

[CrabbyCrumble]

DS was recently diagnosed with a life threatening, lifelong condition. He is managing extremely well and has taken it in his stride. Today is only his 3rd day back at school. He had been given passes to be able to leave the classroom and go to the loo when he wants.

Today as he was leaving class to go to the loo, his teacher made a comment that why do so many people need to go to the toilet in lesson (not necessary IMO), and another boy piped up ‘because he’s got x’ (name of condition).

One of DS’s friends told the teacher DS looked sad at that comment so teacher had now given all the boys on that table a detention!

DS stated he was not sad and was not bothered by the comment. He told his teacher too. One if my boys messaged my DD saying they have detention.

I am now concerned these boys will be pissed they’ve got a detention and blame DS. It also puts more attention on his condition.

They are Yr8. AIBU to say something to the school tomorrow ( detention tomorrow after school).

I read it as though the boy shouting it out was sticking up for your son. In a 'how can you say that he's not well' way. The teacher is at fault here. She also shouldn't have given the whole table a detention, unless they were laughing. Do you think your son might have not told you the whole truth and that the whole table was laughing? That would make more sense because if not to teacher seems to be the issue here.

The teacher was a grade a arse.

She either did know about your ds pass or should have known.

The kids are young & this could negatively jmpact your ds.

Punishment of whole groups of people for the actions of one ie collective punishment is actually against international law.

She's literally a fucking idiot.

I don't see what the boy who shouted it has done wrong personally

Doesn't seem like the OPs son is keeping it a massive secret and if anything this boy was supporting him being able to go to the loo

The teacher needs a word though
