    I know there is nothing wrong with him and now they have me watching him with other boys his age looking for something wrong and I feel so guilty for doing it now. Like I am failing him :( xx

  • You're defo not.

    They highlighted something to you, bearing in mind you know they are wrong about it. You are now looking out to see if there are any reasons for their rubbish comments. It's concern for your child.

    Don't feel guilty for being a good wee mum!

  • Oh Monz ((((BIG HUGS)))) to you, what a worry.


    You're a fab mum and always put your little boy first.


    I think that the school are in the wrong for doing this, they're turned what was a situation with another child in to unnecessary worry about yours. They should've dealt with the problem that had happened rather than trying to cause upset.


    Hope you get it sorted. xx

    Hi everyone

    Hope you all had a good weekend! I had a good one. We went to log cabin for my friends 30th and tbh it was just what I needed to get away a couple days.

    The school will receive my letter today (posted recorded delivery) and my mum says to brace myself as they will not like it as I called them out in letter but was needed to be done if they are making accusations/ assumptions against my son :( xx

  • Aw I'm so glad you had a nice time.

    Let me know which cabins you went to, we always intend to do something like that but somehow have never got around to it.

    The school have to expect to be called out over something like this, they can't just go around telling parents that they think there is something wrong with their child & expect to get away with it - it is ridiculous!

    Let us know how you get on with them.

    Dxxx
