In reply to the discussion: Video Shows Memphis 7-Year-Old Dragged Off School Bus By His Feet [View all]keepleft101
(82 posts)I thank you very much.
I also had a older bully start a fight with my kid when he asked this kid to stop picking on a even younger child. Its how I know the school cant release the video if they have one.
I raised a stepson and have an 11th grader & an 7th grader. Too be honest Im a complete push over with the kids.
To question my parenting because I would be embarrassed that my child acted that way with a teacher is confusing.
I have stated several times the teacher was wrong with the way they handled it. Once they grabbed the legs of the child and started dragging him.
That still does not excuse the way the child acted. There is obviously issues with the parenting of that child. That is the parent you should be questioning. Just as much as the teacher.
I have 3 kids and not one of them to this point (knock on wood) have been in trouble once at school. I never received feedback that they were rude or smart with teachers. They have & do all play sports with their schools. All have decent grades ( not the best) but decent grades.
Im completely involved in all of their lives. Coaching their youth teams, doing homework with them, reading them books at night, semi PTO involvement, volunteered at the school ...etc. My 17 year old wrote his hero paper on me when he was in 7th grade and I found out this past weekend that my youngest in 7th grade now is also doing it one me. So even with my laid back parenting style I must be doing something right. I don't want to sound like Im bragging or boasting but it seriously pisses me off someone who doesn't know me because I disagree with them questions my parenting. I always said if there is anything I want on my tombstone is that I was a good parent.
Not even sure why I care what the heck you think. I just don't like your condescending tone
