So what.    If that is the most important thing to you in this story you really missed the big picture.

Ummm…no, read the article you wrote about. She was in trouble for various other things and the mother has said not one word about her child’s behavior. Nor did she pull her child from the school but she sure did complain and call the news when she thought her chile was called something bad.  Is telling a kid with nappy hair to sit their nappy head down bad?  Only in bizzaro world.  The mother isnt’  embarassed that she has a disruptive violetn kid in school that is so bad the principal wants her out and a black principal at that. Nope it all comes down to one comment that a teacher made DURING her childs continued misbehaviour.  

What are you trying to prove? That the kid is justified for being who she is and what she is because the teacher finally snapped and said something that some mindless idiot who has his “oh no you didn’t radar on can forget all about her actions and just focus on the teachers words?

Lets play this forward, the teacher maybe should have pushed to have the kid expelled at the third instance of misconduct. But that didnt’ happen. So are you saying the teacher should be held accountable for some ridiculous political correcteness?  What does the kid learn? How many other kids are still going to be impacted?  Charter schools aren’t playgrounds or daycare centers, if she doesnt want to learn and her dad who appeared on video therefore must be a good dad can’t change her, then he should pull her out of school and have her attend a school that fits her better and stop wasting the teachers time as well as all the other students in her class.   real parents teach children how to be adults, not get outraged over nonsense when they started the problem to begin with. Makes for a miserable life.

I don’t know RiPPa, but a couple times while speaking with people I’ve thought the same thing; however, I just used my INSIDE voice.

There is a lot more to this story than some off the cuff comment.    Brea Presley of course has a different name than Moms Shronda Williams. Somehow I suspect ole “Shoranda”:  wasn’t raisin her daughter to be respectful courteous and accountable.  Call it a hunch.

Or are you saying out of nowhere the teacher went ballistic and jumped to sit your nappy head down?  The kid was in trouble for excessive tardiness, gum chewing and fighting. Charter schools don’t tolerate those who keep impacting other kids who are working hard to learn.

The way I see it there are two sides to this and the mother has said nothing about her childs behaviour and impact on the other kids, yet is focusing on some trite comment. The kids does have nappy hair and odds are moms has said this to her.  If she is worry about being embarassed maybe she should think about what all the teachers and other parents and kids feel about her daughter being disruptive and violent in school.  Instead she will focus on a comment and not what her daughter did, the kid will continue to be a problem because its how they reacted to you, not what you did.
