Facebook is really something that most people should not be using. It seems as if we are treated to someone nearly everyday getting in trouble over something they posted.
Facebook is evil. Just ask Ashley Habat :)
No sympathy for facebook stupidity.
Well this lady found out the hard way that opinions sometimes have consequences.
The name needs to be changed from Facebook to Footinmouthbook.
It is unbelievable the things people post for the world to see. She publicly hammered the school so they hammered back. Since it is a private school they have every right to dump her son. Too bad for the kid but he does get a lesson about the real world. Maybe Mom got a lesson too in being more discrete about what she posts on Facebook.
First off why is a FOUR year old in any kind of school???? It is a private school which means it costs a fair chunk of change.
This mom is so way out of line for oh so many reasons.... not the least of which is she should be talking with the principal of the school if she has ‘issues’.
“According to Habat, she went on Facebook and vented her frustrations.
She said she never thought the school would ever see her post.
“They couldn’t see it. It was private to my friends only.””
Too stupid to be on FB....she TAGGED the school in her post
1) If you don't like the school, fear not -- you no longer have to put up with their shenanigans.
2) Are your standards too high? I'm going to say "No" to that, because you seem trashy.
3) Are people in education ignorant? Well ... someone is ignorant ... but I won't name names.
Wrong melanin level, otherwise he has the intellectual capability to have been a Democratic politician, even POTUS.
Christians not acting in the spirit of Christ. I’m shocked I tell you.
Most private schools have NDA type agreements or Honor Codes that preclude public discord towards the school and staff. I bet she signed one. Now she bas broken it and they bounced her.
Words have meaning.
And if she tagged the school in the post, she is an idiot.
And take a picture with your phone.
Why do people think their kids will never get over little disappointments? This why kids are all messed up today.
Or in her case the one of ,"Never insult the alligator until you are out of the swamp" applies.
How long does it take to get a 4-year old ready for picture day? A week is not enough notice? Give him a bath a put a clean shirt on him.
I hate stoopit people who act retar-et.
You tagged the skrewel in your post specifically so you could get satisfaction of “sticking It” to anyone who read it.
Parents, you are the primary educators of your children. Responsibility for their education rests squarely on your shoulders.
The school did right to expel the child, as the relationship between the mother and the school was not a right relationship, and thus, it was inappropriate for the child to stay in the school. It wasn’t mean, or petty. It was an honest action. One that demonstrates the good faith of the school.
When you choose not to homeschool your children, and to send them to a traditional school, you are engaging that school to be your partner in the education and formation of your children. If the school takes their mission seriously - to be the primary resource of the parents in educating the parents’ children, then there are certain conditions that must be met, a certain relationship that must come into existence between the school and the parents.
The first necessary ingredient in the relationship must be trust, and that trust must go in both directions. The parents must have some basic trust in the school that the school will do its best to educate and form the child properly. And the school must trust the parents that they will work cooperatively with the school, will abide by the policies of the school, will be in broad, general agreement with the philosophy of the school as the primary resource of the parents in educating and forming the parents’ child[ren].
This doesn’t mean that there are never differences of opinion between the school and the parents, or that those differences may be, from time to time, sharp, or that the either school or parents are immune to criticism.
It DOES mean that differences are addressed directly and confidentially.
If, as parents, you find yourselves incapable of directly and confidentially addressing problems, it’s time to do something different.
From the school’s perspective, they can’t really succeed with your kid if the relationship is adversarial and openly hostile. Maintaining their own integrity as an institution required them to invite the family not to return with their child.
