Dd, 4 started pre school this September, she’s a bright, funny, brilliant girl, but she’s also strong minded and can be a pain in the butt, I say that as her mum, who loves the bones of her, but also knows her inside out.
The teacher was very kind and friendly at the start as she settled in and said she was doing great etc. Last week, she told me that dd had to sit on the bench as she was pushing another boy on the slide and that Dd was crying as didn’t like to be made to sit on the bench. She said lots of them do it and it’s fine and was dealt with. I spoke to Dd later about it when she sheepishly brought it up, she said she was scared when she got told off, we talked about why she had to sit on there as she can’t push etc
The last couple of times I’ve picked her up, the assistant has brought her out and been friendly but brief.
Today it was the teacher, I asked if all was ok and she gave a quick, half nod and looked uncomfortable. I may sound paranoid but I know that look as I’m a Primary school teacher and it appeared maybe Dd had been difficult but she perhaps didn’t want to always say it?
She was quite short with Dd too, whereas at the start she was very sweet with her, giving her cuddles and gushing over her.
I realise I may be reading too much into it, but I know the way staff can act with different people.
