He's not an apt pupil, he doesn't pay attention, etc. But she will give him homework alerts if he does it wrong (which is scary, because I help him!), she seems very punitive. She wants him to stop(!) seeing a reading tutor. I'm all, but then, won't he fall behind even more? And I'm not supposed to help him but she's still mad at him even when we check his work. When he is good she doesn't see it and is convinced that it's only because he's sneaky. Finally at the conference I said, "All the other authority figures and teachers in his life have no problem with him. Perhaps it's a personality conflict." This is after 20 minutes of her not having one good thing to say about him. (the one good thing was just used to make a point of how bad he usually does.) There's only a few months to go. Should I do anything *now*? How can I advise my son to turn it around with this woman? Or do I forget it at this point?
