What I hate is at my job... when a kids mom takes their kids side and is all defensive for their kid when their "angel" of a kid was physically aggressive to another kid (and caused pain to them) when it was not/nor is ever warranted. Their childs coping skills is to lash out and hurt someone else. That child got a write up from me and the other did not. I will defend the child who needs it and not coddle the one with rage issues. Sorry folks, I have been doing this for too long and I am NOT a parents doormat.
the other child merely told the aggressive one that they made a cheating move in Chess. Did not jump up and yell and did not scream they were cheating...just merely said..."you can't do that, thats cheating" because the aggressive child knew what he was doing and WAS trying to cheat.(the one cheating does know how to play chess)
that does NOT merit grabbing the other kids wrist and squeezing and twisting the other kids finger to cause serious pain and grimace to them that they are NOT CHEATING.
Had a talk to them about the rules at my job and had a one on one talk with the aggressor about how that is not acceptable. Had a talk with the hurt child about maybe not telling people they are cheating and to come tell me first...
Dagnabbit the parent of the child with the write up does not believe me. OH WELL.-- I am not a doormat.
