Girls, this is really tough. Our senior-class homeroom teacher is getting on my nerves. She’s always fussing about contests and events, but she doesn’t seem to care about studying. Yesterday she called and asked if I could participate in the parent patrol. I agreed since I live nearby and I have a child in a wheelchair, but my daughter started coughing at night and had a runny nose. I texted her first thing in the morning to say I wouldn’t be able to participate because my daughter is sick, and she slept poorly. She called me later asking where we were. She hadn’t read my message, even though she's online almost all the time and posts about contests. I told her everything, and she said something like, 'Could you at least call next time?' She didn’t wish us well or show any courtesy. In our daycare, and even the former teacher, they always wished us well if something happened. She knows I have two small children; she could have checked with other parents to see if someone else could step in, since she’s so passionate about this. For me, today is okay, but tomorrow anything could happen. Has anyone else experienced this? 🤷 I’m afraid this might affect my son’s grades.
