The first preschool we sent him too didn't understand his food intolerance at all. He was sick all of the time and we had to leave the school because of it. I always pack his lunch and snack but some how he always was eating things I didn't send for him. Finally we found a preschool where the teacher had Celiac and totally understood how important it was. Then we started homeschooling for K and frist.Maurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03926897555513324016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1149943933118579164.post-6759784708497148112012-04-05T15:46:05.135-07:002012-04-05T15:46:05.135-07:00Spoken from someone who has worked in the child ca...Spoken from someone who has worked in the child care (heck seriously DAY CARE all day) do not send any child to that so called preschool. Unless it has a complete separate room and preschool setting (like the situation at DMCS). Teachers "yelling at kids outside" is really normal for day care (but NOT preschool). That's how most kids learn how to respond with parents who drop them off before 7am and don't pick them up until after 5pm. And honestly child care teachers are exhausted. They have a room full of kids that are out of control most of the time and don't have the same parenting as you and I did growing up--where respect is important, and they're used to not hearing no since their parents feel bad for not seeing them much at all. If the parents don't respect the teachers it's hard for the teachers to respond back because they feel like it's no use. And the cycle continues.<br />Oh to go back to day care days.....Mary Kaisandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13110041135695152301noreply@blogger.com
