They can't treat parents like that... that's just terrible. And on what grounds are they making these assumptions? On the basis of a teeny, tiny scratch?! I really think I would talk to the head and tell her while you appreciate their concern for the children, they can't talk to parents like that.ebabee likeshttp://ebabee.co.uk/ebabeelikesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015030219140669520.post-61111407123624017422011-01-15T21:12:01.926+00:002011-01-15T21:12:01.926+00:00Hi Mummyattheschoolgate :0)

Not a great way to deal with a situation, I think i would have flipped my lid. I understand that if they have a concern they need to raise it but surely if there was blood on her top when you had dropped her off they should have said something then. hope you're ok xrock n roll mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649964038807589781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015030219140669520.post-45597508512365737792011-01-14T11:39:09.738+00:002011-01-14T11:39:09.738+00:00Hmm.

It is good that they keep an eye on them, but honestly! Talk about over doing it. I did snigger at the 'I don't want Henry to touch my leg' bit though.

'She'd get me hung' and it's true. She could make the most innocent of things sound awful! Like 'Remember when you pushed me off the slide Mummy, and a cut my knee' She meant pushed DOWN the slide, as you do.... I'm sure people passing by had visions of me flinging her off the top of a helter skelter!!!

I'm sure that they must deal with 'actual' situations in the course of their work, it's just very upsetting when you've done nothing wrong and it was over such a silly misunderstanding. xLiz Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05860282774080831783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015030219140669520.post-23136690627731618922011-01-13T20:59:58.485+00:002011-01-13T20:59:58.485+00:00Oh no!

I've never been in a situation like that before, it was horrible.<br /><br />The funny thing is, she eventually opened up to her dad this evening, and explained what she'd meant was that she didn't want all the nursery staff ('ladies') fussing around her, she just wanted to carry on playing!
