[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 4096369, member: 45551"] This, pure and simple. And I am SO glad those days are behind me. I had a principal call me at work one day and tell me I could not drop my kids off at the school before 8 am anymore. I asked if they were misbehaving. No, that wasn't the problem. Just class didn't start until 8:20 and 7:45 was too early. I always made sure they had eaten breakfast, had their homework done and had a book to read while they were waiting on school to start and that they knew if they caused any trouble before school started there would be hell to pay when I found out about it. 🤷🤷🤷 There were already adults at the school when I dropped them off, so they were not unsupervised -- or unattended. 🤷🤷 Nope. No reason other than she "just didn't like kids being there earlier than 8 am". When I told her I worked downtown, we lived too close for the boys to ride the bus, but far enough away and in a rough enough neighborhood I was not comfortable with them walking (Tulakes Elementary -- you guys who know KNOW) she told me maybe I should quit working and go on public assistance. Btw, I heard the exact same thing from a principal at Quail Springs Elementary when the boys were enrolled there. ****ing admin and teachers don't give a **** about anything but what affects them. (And none of y'all are gonna change my mind so go ahead and tell me how rough teachers have it. 🙄🙄🙄) [/QUOTE]
