You know what....I think the teacher is being disrespectful to your son. There is no reason why your son is all of a sudden acting this way. You saw proof of the teachers disrespect and rudeness. So, go to the principal and have a conference with the teacher, the son, you, and the principal all together, so you can see what your son says while the teacher is around.
Believe me, we now live in a world where teachers are doing anything and saying anything to students. So, all 4 of you guys need to sit down and have both sides of the story explained to the principal because obviously there is some tension between your son and the teacher and that needs to be found out. A lot of teachers these days automatically think they can say anything about your child to the principal and get away with it because they think children dont have credablitily (dont mind spelling). But, I really think you ought to do that. The teacher is the disrespectful one in my book and the son is the victim.
Definitely do this and see what happens. Either way, listen to your son, listen carefully to the detail in his stories and the consistency of them. Your son is probably lacking in school because of the teacher. Children are very sensitive and can easily slip in school because of negativity from any angle.
Please do this...the teacher is definitely the problem, especially after speaking to you the way she did.

what do you see? Do you honestly feel that he has problems with his speech? If you do, then you should invest in getting his speech therapy. Look up free evaluations in your area or through the school. Also, since you are an at-home mom then you should volunteer to help out in the teacher's classroom so you can SEE for yourself what is going on. Obviously you may feel a bit awkward with the teacher there, but atleast you will be making an effort for your son. Talk to the school coordinator (they happen to be hired parents!) and get more advice about this before you go and make a complaint to the principle. Hope this helps.

Has your son ever been evaluated and/or tested for any speech issues? what about the "other schools"post?how many schools has he been to?If in fact the Teacher spoke to you that way,it would be highly unprofessional and you should immediately speak to her supervisor.You have rights as a parent and I would demand a meeting with both the Teacher and Principle.Someone else would have noted if your son truly had a speech problem,gym,art,other teachers.Just to be safe though it would not hurt to get their speech pathologist to just do a quick evaluation if others have said the same.Good luck.Lisa

I would have dragged her @ss straight to the principal that very minute. I am also a stay at home mom, girl, have no shame, be proud. I had the same problem with my 4 yr old last year in pre-school. It was an all day program. He was always good at home . Everything, but he would frequently get bad marks in school for unknown reasons.
I would go to the principal ASAP! Seriously.

Just because she is a teacher does not give her the right to speak to you that way. If the child doesn't have a problem in his other classes then it's clear it's not you but the teacher who is the problem. I wouldn't even speak to her again but go straight to the principle and if that doesn't work go to the school board.

If she has some kind of concern, I can see the need for her to let you know as his teacher. But as for just completely critizing you as a parent and a person and your son is uncalled for. I would definately speak to the principal. There is no need for the teacher to say her personal opinion of your parenting skills. I would also let the principal know that everyone else seems to be able to understand your son and that maybe she isn't taking the time to listen to him.

to covrer all bases have your child tested and checked by your pediatrician , if nothing is found , then take these facts to the school board and have the teacher examined.you as a parent have the right to sit in on and monitor a class to view the situation for yourself. if they refuse then there is a problem with that school, seek a transfer or a private school or home school.

Its called Prejudice.
Your son can't speak in a manner that suits his teacher and therefore is inferior to the rest of the class.
Sit down with the principal and see if you can't get your son in a different class. If the results aren't to your satisfaction go to the school board and if you have a friend who is a lawyer make sure they come with you. It is their job to educate your son, and the law requires them to make compensation for problems.
Also hopefully you have your son going to a speech therapist, not because of issues involving school, but life will always judge him on his patterns of speech

I without a doubt would speak to the Principal regarding this teacher's behavior and attitude. I would also suggest a teacher change in order to give your child a fresh start.

I am not sure where you live, but in our school district, they will test the children for speech problems if you request it.
I would definitely go to the principal. I would go in very calmly and explain to him/her your situation and say that you think it would be in the best interest of everyone to move your child. Apparently this teacher does not have the patience/ability to conduct herself properly and you do not want your son it that environment.
VERY IMPORTANT: Don't go in there irate. You want to be cool, calm and collected.
