First of all I want to thank all of you for your kind words. It really makes me feel better to know that I was not being over-sensitive. Second I wanted to report that I did talk to the teacher this morning and she knew about the incident yesterday and that she sent a note home to this child's parents. She was unaware of the first incident and said she would say something as it is a policy not to hand out invitations at school unless everyone was invited. She understood my position and my concerns. While I was in the carpool line waiting for Olivia to get buckled in I thanked her teacher for talking to me this morning. She told me that she talked to the class today about how hurtful inviting some to a party and not others was. She also told me that she got a note back from the parents from yesterday's incident and they had no clue what she handed out but it was not an invitation to a party as they don't have one scheduled. She also told me that she was going to send a note home to all the parents the first day back from Spring Break gently reminding them about the inviting all or none rule.
Thanks for everything y'all!

That's super Becky! I truly believe that in most cases people do not purposefully want to hurt anyone's feelings. It's great to have a teacher you feel comfortable enough to talk to. I tell ya', people just do not get any nicer than those in the state of KY.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you said something to the teacher.....sounds like she is a great one...she handled the situation, perfectly!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
I'm so glad that she handled it so well. Now hopefully the other parents will, too.
ReplyDeleteWe have that same policy: all the kids are invited, or all boys/all girls depending on the situation. Otherwise, they should be mailed.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the teacher handled the situation so quickly. I hope the parents actually follow through and obey the rules.
