..and have changed my name as don't want to be identified as it sounds a bit petty but it is something which has been annoying me.

DD's school year has a play every year. For the past three years, the head of drama's daughter has had the starring role. She left school in the summer and appeared back a few weeks ago as she hadn't settled at her new school. School play in three weeks, and guess who has starring role again?

I'm not a pushy Mum who wants DD to take the lead (she would hate it), but surely other children should be allowed to have a go in the main part? There are over 100 in the year, so why choose this one child every year? I can't believe the other 99 are incapable of saying a few words on stage!

Grrr!

Hooray, hooray, 'twas the play today!
Head of Drama's daughter was something insignificant in the chorus. Star of the show, complete with long blonde hair was little girl who has special needs AND SHE WAS FAB!!!

There is a god after all. DD was not in the chorus, had v v minor part, and was delighted by it.

HOD watched play with face like thunder. I almost expected him to shout out "Nobody puts Baby in the chorus..."
