my 5th grade son was kicked out of class yesturday

[OutHouse]

he isn't sick he has allergies from all the haying going on around where we live. he told me he sneezed 3 times and the teacher made him sit outside the classroom for about a hour. WTF! :|

we sent a email to his teacher this morning wanting an explanation. i bet she is going to come back with some H1N1 bullshit.

**edit**

reason for email instead of phone call is because i want a written record of this.

i was going to mention that. i would have been on the phone when i heard about it

I wouldn't want my kid to get infected with a virus from another kid especially if it could be prevented. IMO, the teacher did the right thing.

Simultaneous post on "Teachers.com" about annoying parent's outrageous email

Get with the times, grandpa. Email is a completely legit form of communication.

Now, if the OP had sent a text message saying "OMGWTFBBQ!?!?!?!?"...

I once recieved a half day suspension because I yawned in math class.
Although, the yawn was vocal, but still, really? a suspension?

Do you have any idea how tough it is being a teacher these days? They have to deal with the heelspawn of children that today's society has produced as well as legalities that they did not have to deal with 30 or more years ago.

In some cases, a face to face conversation is much more effective than a emailed message.
This happens to be one of those cases.

:roll:

im very aware on how tough a teachers job is.

 

[RyanPaulShaffer]

ZOMG TEH SWINE FLUZ WERE ALL GONNA DIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

:roll:

OP, I would have been on the phone with the principal, superintendent, etc. all the way up the chain...in a heartbeat. Emails are very easy to ignore or marginalize...you need to get up in their face for stupidity like this.

 

[PatrickBateman]

was he simultaneously saying "bull#$%!!" while sneezing?

if a person can't deal with a child sneezing then they need a new job.

Tell him to sneeze daily

Honey is about as useful for allergies as vitamin C is for colds (in other words, it isn't).

Was he covering his mouth? Stay on the teacher, but don't blow a gasket.

Why, you still don't know why he was sent out of class? I would think that they didn't want the whole class to get sick. Is that hard to understand?

Blowhard lunatic parents are always great. Remember, your kid is a shining star who can do no wrong. And his version of the story is perfectly accurate, always. Kids don't mislead parents, ever.
