What are some reasons that you would pull your child out of a class and/or school?
I pulled my 5 and 8 year old out of school because I didn't trust the teacher's assistant. She was being mean to the children and showing them affection and rewarding them with gift towards the end of the day. I couldn't trust the teacher because she covered up for the assistant. This was my second time dealing with a teacher's assistant who exhibited erratic behavior. The funny thing is that I smelled crazy when I met the both of them. As for the teachers who back any adult who mistreats a child, shame on them. I'm now homeschooling. It's pretty challenging but I am more at peace knowing that the only PMSing or menopause my children will have to deal with will be mine. Not menopause age yet but you get my point. You never know if she's dealing with some weird issues and taking them out on your child. You just never know. Schedule a meeting with the principal and the teacher. Make sure you bring everything to the table and don't be surprised if the principal sides with the teacher immediately. I wish you all the best!
Would you pull your child from ATA?
My son was at a parent night out at an ATA school this evening. He is 7and has Aspergers. He’s a member at this school and was very excited about tonight. When I picked him up, he exploded in the car, crying about how he didn’t get to play any games. He was having a hard time breathing and it took me a very long time to calm him down. After talking to him for quite some time to figure out what happened, I came to find out that he was put in time-out shortly after they started playing because the instructor told him to stop running and he didn’t stop. He sat in time-out for at least an hour and a half. He did not play any games. It wasn’t until parents started walking in to pick their kids up that he was allowed to join the last game for the night. I. Am. Livid. What would you do? I would immediately pull him from the school if we didn’t have a contract. Are there laws against this type of punishment? I basically paid for my child to sit in time-out for a night. He was broken-hearted. He had been talking about how excited he was all day.
Depends on the kid. If I had a child with special needs or who was timid, I would try another school because private schools are not great at special ed, for most part. I would take my kid out of the school for the following reasons:Bullying goes unchecked.The culture of the school and its teachers is not one of kindness, tolerance, adaptability and understanding.The principal is domineering, fake with you or bullies the teachers. This affects the entire culture of the school, causing a lack of innovation, sycophant behavior, fear and depression. Do meet the principal before enrolling your child. After being in schools for over 30 years, I have had around 5 good principals. I wonder what they teach in their leadership classes.A particular teacher is verbally abusive towards my child.If there is no way to change to a better teacher, then out we go!That’s all folks.
My Great-Grandmother (Winifred) was left out of a will. She was from a reasonably well off Family and was raised to be somewhat of a lady.My Great-Grandfather (Alfred) however was the complete opposite. By all accounts he was a womanizer and a philanderer. Winifred was easy prey and somewhat easily wooed. She slipped up and ended up pregnant. They married in haste sometime in 1900 but to Winifred’s Family she was “damaged goods” and a “whore”. She was cut off completely and doomed to live a married life with Alfred who didn’t stop having affairs.Winifred went from having quite a lovely life to spending each day trying to make ends meet. She had a number of children throughout her marriage (in the days of no contraception) but the womanizing continued. My Grandmother (Molly) remembers her Mother as having been a wonderful woman. She mentions that she was a real lady and very loving. In contrast, she couldn’t speak about her Father at all. All Molly’d tell us was that “he could have been a headmaster” but that’s it.When Molly was only a toddler, she recalled how Winifred (her Mum) suddenly collapsed one day and couldn’t get up. She ushered Molly and her sister into another room and made them promise not to come out. There was a commotion and my Nan could hear banging and she was so concerned she broke her promise and went rushing out to see what was going on. A strange man was in the corridor holding Winifred in his arms and said to Molly “go on now. Go back into the other room” as he went running out of the house with my Great Gran in his arms.Turns out my Great Gran had gone into labour and had banged on the window for a passer by to help her so as not to scare the kids. It had the opposite effect but she didn’t want the children to worry. My Nan (Molly) remembers standing by the front door with her sister all alone and unsupervised not knowing what to do. Alfred came home sometime later and it seems that Winifred had died giving birth (aged 34). The child did not survive.On hearing the news my Nan (Molly) hid in amongst some coats playing with her doll and sobbing her heart out. She could never talk about her Mum without ending the sentence in tears.Despite coming from a background of reasonable means, Winifred was buried in a paupers grave. There are three other poor people buried in the same grave (all of whom were poor and unrelated to one another).Molly eventually died when she was 89.Picture: Winifred Hoffman
Should I pull my child out of the preschool?
I wouldn't pull her out!! It will probably be the same next year. I used to be a toddler teacher and would see this. Are you sure that she is crying the whole time or only when you are there and then stops a little after you leave? Lots of kids will act out while there parents are present and then be fine when they are gone and then act up again when they come to pick them up. I think that with the classes only being 2 hrs it doesn't give her much time to calm down and play with the other kids in between you leaving and coming back. One of the other ways that we would sometimes have to deal with this to give the child a little treat when they arrive. So she doesn't think it's a punishment being there. I would try a snack that she really likes but doesn't get very often. They only problem is giving it to her without the other kids seeing so they don't want some. Maybe you could start to drop her off 5 min early and then right after you leave they give her a treat. (I wouldn't have you give her the treat, I would have the teacher do it after you leave) I hope this helps! Good luck!
Can you pull your child out of school for no reason?
no one knows a toddler better than his/her mom. If the bullying is taking an emotional toll on the youngster, this is time to get the youngster out of the atmosphere. could you pour salt right into a toddler's wound to "make stronger the youngster up"? needless to say no longer. Public training is for coaching examining, writing, and arithmetic, no longer for coaching a toddler to harden her coronary heart and post with consistent harassment. those are wounds that could in no way heal, and could lead directly to a fashion forward for psychiatric intervention.
My daughter has been diagnosed with social anxiety disorder. School for her was a major trigger zone and after 2.5 years in secondary school I decided for her mental and physical health and educational development to home educate her.By this point she was only managing a 3 day school week as the constant feeling of anxiousness over everything around her and the possible situations that she could be faced with ment that after 3 days she was exhausted and had physical symptoms which was diagnosed as stress induced ibs. She was in the bottom set in classes as this ment she could easily do the work and therefore avoid any need to speak with teachers for help as she is electively mute and unable to speak in stressful situations.Having been asked in to discuss her attendance by the school she went in every day for 2 weeks which at the end resulted in an epic meltdown which still makes me cry myself thinking of as I never want to see my child in that state again.That was the last day she attended schoolNow after almost a year out of school she has a increase in her grades of at least 2 places and is on target to exceed her expected grades by miles and has started therapy which so far is helping one step at a time. Her future is bright and her spirit willing and able to succeed.When the situation presents itself then you will know the time is right as the options will be limited.
Can you pull your child out of school shrtly after an IEP was created?
I pulled two kids with IEPs out of public school, so YES, it can be done! Visit www.hslda.org for more info about your state, as they all have differing requirements. I wrote a letter, even though our state does not require notification, stating that I recognized the IEP as a legal document, I was releasing the state from their legal requirement to provide services for my child and that services would no longer be required. According to federal law, IDEA, schools DO NOT have to provide services for children who are voluntarily pulled from a school. You could ask, but in my experience the therapies received from schools are very little help when compared to private services, and most schools will not provide services because they are not receiving funding as your child is not a registered student. Homeschooling my children came after I realized that most teachers do NOT have additional training that helps with disabled children. Because I understand my child and have great empathy for her, I was much more qualified to assist her educational and vocational needs. It has been a LOT of work. I have figured out the best educational processes, I search continuously for books and games that will help her learn, our days are full of the vocational and life skills training that she will need. It has been amazing, though, and we all love it. My kids are happier, I'm happier, we're all more relaxed and they are actually learning much more at home than they did at school (my daughter was three grades behind, and I caught her up in less than four months. Hello!) Good luck with your choice.
Actually whoever answered this question previously is Absolutely wrong and you contradict yourself with your own statement of the definition of abuse. People like you are the reason children hit their parents and have no respect for authority. A firm tug on an ear or a good butt whooping (which both can cause a small amount of pain btw) are perfectly appropriate and LEGAL AS WELL which would not be if they were ABUSE because true ABUSE IS ILLEGAL. Like I said before you contradicted yourself when you stated causing any pain is abuse and the definition states clearly causing INJURY OR TRAUMA which is not automatic with pain. You should look up the definition of injury or trauma before you post this again. Quora is about being as close to FACTUAL as possible not our OPINIONS. So I will answer your question with a fact you can verify and that is a simple pull on an ear to keep a child in line is not abuse trust me on this. Now this is a sensitive subject so after I post this all the hippy parents that aren't involved in their kids lives and has someone else dealing with the grunt work or proffesionals with no experience will jump on the subject with their righteous indignations so don't pay any mind cause the fact is no it is not illegal, frowned upon but not illegal. I hope this answer helped. Good day.
