Mom Gets Called Into Parent-Teacher Conference After Her Son Writes An Angry Letter To Teacher For Disciplining Him
Most children have a tough time filtering what is appropriate to say to others and what they should keep to themselves. Their lighthearted bluntness often leaves their parents in very awkward situations. But some things just have to be said, and there’s no one to stop these kids!Recently, one such instance went viral across various social media platforms after Jaquya Bradford shared a letter her coworker’s son wrote to his teacher. The coworker was invited to a parent–teacher conference because of the content of the letter. Apparently, her son Isaiah was talking during class, so to discipline him for disrupting the lesson, the teacher decided to take his stuff away. This made the 6-year-old boy furious. To express his frustrations with the teacher, the boy wrote her a candid letter and said everything he thinks of her. While the letter clearly embarrassed the boy’s mom, both her coworkers and people who stumbled on the letter online couldn’t help but laugh. Isaiah’s brutal honesty won the hearts of thousands of people. Read what he wrote below!

Share on FacebookI ran a middle school behavior program and have worked with kids for 15 years now. I assume the Hummingbird Bucks are a token economy for the classroom that kids earn to exchange for some sort of prize or privilege. It's a bad idea to take away something a kid has already earned as that generates a feeling of injustice. Imagine if you work 4 of 5 days but then no show for the 5th day. It's understandable to not be paid for that 5th day, but what if they also deducted 1 or 2 other days' pay as a penalty for your behavior on the 5th day? That's why it's good to have kids earn privileges (video games, etc) for good behavior instead of them feeling like it's a "right" to be able to play video games or whatever.
It's a bad idea to take away something a kid has earned? Even if it's a consequence of bad behavior? You don't know how disruptive this kid has been, it could be an ongoing issue and this was the result. Not holding people accountable for their bad behavior gets you a society full of entitled spoiled brats who think the rules don't apply to them.
Load More Replies...It's not okay to tell your teacher she is going to burn in hell. That's a big deal coming from a six year old. He needs some help managing his emotions.
And then to throw the hair comment in...says a lot about his parenting if you ask me.
