Should i confront teacher?

My daughter (8) teacher told her that I’m not at attorney?? (I am. and idk why she’d say that?) it’s weird to me… daughter came home today and said to me “oh actually Mrs.*** said that you’re not actually an attorney when I told my friends you were” like wtf?? First of all, why is teacher talking about me and my profession in the first place?? Second of all, why would she lie to my daughter for no reason. My daughter said she was embarrassed because then people were teasing her calling her a liar….

I’d be having a talk with that teacher

I agree with Yessenia. I wouldn't even say a peep to the teacher. I'd go to the principal. If principal doesn't address it. I would go higher. I've honestly done it before(different reasons) but when a nurse wasn't doing her job I went to the head nurse. When she didn't do it. I went to the principal and then superintendent. Superintendent called EVERYONE OUT ON THE SPOT and had everything fixed. Saying unnecessary things like that isn't very. Professional it's like would she like it if you told her "well what would you know, your JUST a Teacher". Not right especially because she put your daughter on the spot for no reason.
Sorry for the long comment but I hate it when people are like that🙄 especially with kids

right?! I was just sitting here thinking what did that accomplished for you??? I think what happened was my daughter is really inspired by my line of work and how she sees it is that I hope to keep the actual good people out of jail, and told the judge that they need to learn from their mistakes. She’s inspired by it and she even wants to be a judge or an attorney when she’s older!
So I know, she tells her friends about her, wanting to become a judge or an attorney. But there has also been this little boy, who is bullying her and harassing her. He’s never physical, but he does things to bother her, even if she ignores him and told him to stop and leave her alone. She tells the teachers, and they don’t do much about it. They say it’s her fault for not ignoring it. But she does ignore it and does everything she can and he keeps on. At a certain point I told her to just tell him that she’s been nice and asked him to stop and he is not. I told her that when somebody does that

it’s called harassment, which is not legal. I told her that since it’s true and so that she would have more of a secure feeling and feel empowered to say that to him and call him out on his BS. It was when this happened that her teacher interrupted her and told her that I don’t know what I’m talking about and that I’m not actually an attorney…. It was at the lunch tables, and she said that him and all of his little friends and most of the lunch table. We’re just laughing at her and making fun of her. Because “why would an adult/teacher say that it must be true”

I don’t want to put my daughter in the middle of this though. Do you think they will call her in and try to talk to her?

Oh beep no. I would've been at that principles office asap. A little boy hit my kid yesterday and she told me about it and I msged the teacher in a way that I could use it for higher ups if teacher didn't do anything about it lol I said "my kid told me that a boy hit her and she got a bloody nose. She said u told her to get tissue to clean it but nothing else was done correct?" She answered and was like I didn't know anyone hit her and she would address it immediately... my husband keeps telling our kid that "1st u tell the teacher. If the kid keeps it up hit them back." He's like I'll go to the school myself to defend you. He says "If they don't fix the problem then I'll make the problem bigger until they notice" which I think isnt the way but I agree for her to defend herself. I've stood strong on it(my kid gets what she deserves. Whether it's medical treatment, equal chances, equal everything.) If she gets treated less than then I will be her voice for her.

Post partum dad

I have a 2 month old. A few weeks ago my husband crashed out because he didn't feel like he was getting to bond with her. I started exclusively breastfeeding around that time and honestly didnt see the big deal. Baby and I left for a few days and when we got back home, everything was fine. He was extremely hands-on. He helped with my meals, her bedtime, bath, stories.....for a few weeks it was great. Then he randomly sounds depressed af. He says our lo is better off without him, he wants to sleep all day , he asks me not to watch tv then tried playing a video game. He refused to reply to me when i asked any follow-up questions. Then he woke up our baby trying to race me to the bathroom first thing in the morning . He's doing a weird mix of crying, trying, and giving up. Im starting to feel like I cant handle him not being able to handle life with baby and just want to be alone. Are there resources for men?

My friend is over from another country but I don't feel like leaving the house

One of my old friend's is visiting where I currently live and we agreed to meet up today but I feel so tired and exhausted from everything that's been going on with me. I feel if I meet her I'm going to end up having another breakdown from the exhaustion which I have been having often. I'm just thinking about how I need to rest to be able to deal with my toddler and go back to work on Monday without feeling like I need another weekend. I'm torn on what to do so I need you guys to help me decide

Is it bad of me to think this or no?

My husband has been abroad for work (1 day and exploring for 1 day) for 2 and a half days which means I’ve had both kids (1 year and 4 year old) for 2 and a half days plus cooking, cleaning, taking them to clubs, bedtimes!
He came home late afternoon and said I’m so tired, I just need to chill. I said can you wash up whilst I sort kids dinner out, he said he’ll do it later which means he won’t do it and I’ll end up doing it so I said no do it now please otherwise I’ll end up doing it and he said well you have been home and I’ve been away so you’ve just been relaxing.
Don’t know what planet he is on but having the kids alone for 2.5 days is not relaxing. I was stressed!

When he was away, I did miss him and wanted him to come back but now he’s back, I want him to go away again😂
Is that bad?

Weaning

Hello mamas,could I get some advice please with how and what to wean as started this week with my baby but not really what to give and when what time day. Have started with puree vegetables and making them myself and offering it in the evening to my baby but she tends to get irritated and tired and has a few spoonfulls and then gives up and has a meltdown. So I’m questioning myself am I feeding her wrong time of day and what’s best to mix the food with milk or baby rice please.

People telling you your baby is hungry..

I know people don’t always mean it in a bad way and are trying to relate, but when people say my baby is hungry when chewing his hands. I feed him regularly. He eats pretty much every 2 hours. He isn’t hungry, he just loves chewing and exploring his hands. Or they say something about teething, which it is also not, as he isn’t unsettled with it. I have looked into it myself and can be common and neither of those things! He has done it most of the day since 2 months old.
