disappointed and shocked

I am sorry that you have had such "attacks" to your question. I was really disappointed and shocked that others calling themselves professionals would react in that manner. Like I always tell my students, "No question is| a dumb question. If you don't know, just ask". I hope they will take that advice when working with their students! I understand that you would not treat the child differently. But we all have feelings and this has nothing to do with our professionalism. I have run across former boyfriends children in the years of teaching. They may be feeling a little nervous too. Just talk with them | |
about their child as you would any other parent and just don't mention anything about the past. The first time will be the hardest but it will get better! I wouldn't even mention it to my principal. Good Luck!
