She said, "Your child never finishes her work and she talks all the time." She said this to me in front of the entire class, AND my daughter. Lets just say that this one time, I let her hold it. As for my daughter, she was accepted into the gifted program from second thru fifth grade. So to that teacher; na na na na boo boo.<br />ADHD children are often quite intelligent and original. They think outside the box and while it's frustrating to repeat everything five million times, I wouldn't trade my experiences for anything in the world...not even a "normal" child. It hurts when people perceive your child as unintelligent just because they can't process, or focus on information the way others do. Those who comment in the negative are just showing their own ignorance ignorance. All I can say is bless their hearts, they know not what they do.Mary Alford-Carmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06128885998230398086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824836604247418948.post-79316686598326262252011-06-07T15:41:41.735-04:002011-06-07T15:41:41.735-04:00I don't even know what to say :( The times I ...I don't even know what to say :( The times I have gotten unsolicited and unappreciated comments about my boys I have been both hurt and angry. Problem with me is when I am realllly angry I cry, yeah that looks great. That teacher was way off the charts. I had a preschool, PRESCHOOL teacher slam her classroom door in the face of my then 4 year old with me standing there. You can imagine the conversation that took place when I opened the door. When I left I took him with me.I was going to say I wish there was some type of armor you could wear to deflect the arrows but that's not true ...
