My heart just breaks for you and Finn! Yes for you too because I'm convinced we mom's feel the pain as badly if not worse than our kids. Finn certainly doesn't deserve this - you are so right that kindergarten should be a good experience. I hope your meeting goes well and don't hesitate to go to lunch!jbajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584985632896007253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-36844423267953356692008-09-15T19:31:00.000-06:002008-09-15T19:31:00.000-06:00I'm *really* sorry to hear all of this... I could ...I'm *really* sorry to hear all of this... I could just sit down and cry myself thinking about Finn being so upset. <BR/><BR/>The teacher is clearly out line - young and green, yes - but also totally out of line. Have you spoken with the principal? I can't believe an adminstrator would hear of this and not take the teacher to task. <BR/><BR/>Also wondering if there is a more tenured (read: more mature and experienced) teacher that Finn might do better with...??<BR/><BR/>Whatever you do, don't get down on yourself. You are doing everything RIGHT - you know what's best for your own child. <BR/><BR/>You're in my thoughts and prayers. Good luck on Tuesday and please keep us posted.1dreamrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11148545725394346192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-47925693008897365772008-09-15T18:01:00.000-06:002008-09-15T18:01:00.000-06:00Natalie, I am crying for you and Finn right now. ...Natalie, I am crying for you and Finn right now. If he has the diagnosis, maybe he can have an IEP done that will make accomodations for his needs, like a quiet place for lunch or a place to go chill when he gets overstimulated. Talk to the principal and see what they can do. Finn has had to deal with enough in his life, he doesn't need to have crap sandwiches at lunch! Stick to your guns girl. I'll be praying for you both, and for Declan to have his mom come to lunch and have fun with him!<BR/>Sheila-MNAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-46408508757084089452008-09-15T14:41:00.000-06:002008-09-15T14:41:00.000-06:00Poor Finn, I feel so bad for him after all he has ...Poor Finn, I feel so bad for him after all he has been through. Do you want to to come and beat up his teacher? Because I would really like to. Seriously, I agree that he is way out of line. I would try to push that meeting to ASAP if you can. And here in Ohio, kids with certain needs are able to have an aide in the class that works specifically with that child. The school system pays for it and everything. Is something like that available for Finn's sensory disorder in Colorado? Praying for you guys...<BR/><BR/>Amber in MansfieldAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-54929722635655690472008-09-15T09:26:00.000-06:002008-09-15T09:26:00.000-06:00As a mom of a child who suffers from SID my heart ...As a mom of a child who suffers from SID my heart breaks for you and for Finn. I know how hard it is for both of you and you do need a supportive teacher. Many do not understand the sensory challenges, I hope that you can get your OT involved and make school a more positive place for Finn. <BR/><BR/>Amanda<BR/>madisfam@aol.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-73945078627813918852008-09-15T09:25:00.000-06:002008-09-15T09:25:00.000-06:00Yikes, that is horrible.

Sounds like the teacher has made up his mind that your son is a problem without knowing the facts. <BR/><BR/>Our lunch staff are crazy too, Lots of warnings, lights flashing, and noise.Musings from Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13252283843903445777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475456066300656845.post-58774646991987557072008-09-15T07:10:00.000-06:002008-09-15T07:10:00.000-06:00We will pray for you and Finn.

I am over here boo hooing right along with you. <BR/><BR/>I am a teacher and I will say RIGHT NOW that Finn's teacher is WAAAAAAAAAAY out of line. Right then and there, he should have invited you to come to his classroom (even if he ate his lunch at the same time) and had a meeting with you to discuss how Finn is doing and how you can both address it.<BR/><BR/>Fussing at you in the cafeteria amongst everyone is the height of unprofessionalism. He is seriously green.<BR/><BR/>I will be thinking of you today and I hope that you are able to get some resolution in your meeting tomorrow. But again, I think the teacher was just wrong in his responses. You AND FINN deserve better than what he gave this past week.<BR/><BR/>Love ya.<BR/>Leeann<BR/>niccofive.blogspot.comLeeannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529722995554495470noreply@blogger.com
