That's what I'm always afraid will happen to us when state comes in and if a parent comes in, I don't think they would appreciate hearing that said to their child.

Agreed. There are several things I’ve heard other teachers say to their children that make me cringe. Maybe I’m just being a nit pick but I don’t think licensing or a parent would approve of a teacher telling their class to “shush up” or a child who is crying to “turn it off.” Yes, children need to be taught that they can’t always get their own way and that life may not always be fair but there are better phrases that can be used.Comment

I agree with you and agree that what she said is inappropriate. Saying it to your own kids is one thing but saying it to a child who is not your own is another in my opinion. Even just a simple “I understand you are frustrated but sometimes life is frustrating”. It is virtually saying the same thing but in a more compassionate and professional way.Comment
