Articles of Interest

I wanted to list a few articles that discuss issues of child abuse specifically by teachers. This is not an easy subject to find a lot of information on but it is out there if you look. I will try to get permission to post some journal articles later.

Teacher trouble

We have started this blog to share our concerns, findings and opinions about the way that our son's teacher conducts herself in the classroom. We have talked to several other parents about this matter, and found quite contrasting responses. We feel that it is our duty to make the parents of the class aware of how their children are being treated at school.

Our son was coming home everyday with shocking stories about the way the teacher was treating children in his class. When we eventually asked the teacher about these instances, she told us that our child had a problem with lying and that he was making things up. It is a long story, and we would be more than happy to share it, but we decided to send our son to school with a recorder in his pocket. The things we heard were appalling... we don't think we could do justice by writing about it so we'll just post some clips and let you judge for yourselves. These postings are only a scratch on the surface.
