Parent Teacher Conferences Recap

We had The Boy's parent teacher conference yesterday and all went well. They had nice things to say about him and how creative he is. We got to see his artwork and they said he's a bit ahead of his age in their opinion. I guess he takes after me there. He's also a bit sensitive and prone to bottling up hurts, but we already knew those things and the teachers just pointed them out to encourage him to come talk to them when he's feeling upset.

It's always nice to hear good things about your child from someone else and know it isn't just biased Mom and Dad who think he's pretty special and super.

Comments

Well, when he has a super special Mom and Dad, it's easy to see why he turned out so well.

As a teacher, I sometimes forget that things I say at conferences are very important. I just finished my 33rd parent teacher conference a few days ago. Over the years I've seen thousands of parents. Thank you for reminding me to think about saying positive things (one can always find something) to each parent.
