Teacher abusing my child
This is a comment on the article "Teacher abusing my child", in which a distressed parent wrote to The Gleaner's - Ask the Doc feature, complaining that she went to pick up her four-year-old son at school only to hear his teacher abusing him because he was unable to differentiate between the letter 's' and the numeral '2'. "When I got to the door I heard the teacher snapping at him telling him, 'tun the thing the right way bwoy, everything you write, you write back way, you must have cock eye'," the mother. I think the teacher should be more accommodating she was too harshed to the child. He is only 4 years olds so he will make mistakes like those, it is a common thing. When she does that she will make the child scare to learn hence creating a child who is afarid to learn. What are your views.

Very interesting article. I think there is need for collaboration between the parent and the teacher. The school in not the only learning environment and we should also remember that everybody is differently abled
Within my role as a parent, I am angered. I want my child to be confident and secure. This is not a safe environment for a child to learn and explore.People are poor, but not stupid.Teachers ought to be mindful of how they treat other people's children.
As an educator, I know how frustrating it can be when your efforts are not realised through your students.However, we have to cultivate patience and tolerance for the differences in our classrooms. And this problem seems normal for this age group.Perhaps our teachers need to be better trained.
