Someone should explain to this obviously confused teacher that she is not authorized to determine the name our children will be addressed by....heck a twisted person could insist that Kimber be called Glock...SRO1911 wrote:I am expecting heck soon, today was day three of pre-k for my middle child...
The teacher had pre-printed tags on the desks and coat hooks, she was nice enough to "correct" my daughters name on all of this. When i pointed it out she told me that nicknames were not allowed and proper names must be used.
It took a few minutes to explain that KIMBER is not short for KIMBERLY - Kimber is her name.
Probably have less trouble with her little sister - Sierra (unless I send her in a match-king shirt lol)
I am just waiting for someone to recognize the pretty monogram on her water bottle and her hat.

My youngest brothers (twins) where born profoundly deaf. They had to start school early because they needed to learn to communicate from outside traditional family resources. It's a tough learning curve for the entire family as all have to play catch up. We hearing people are not conscious of the lessons we learned from verbal cues and nuances until we watch the challenges for the deaf.
