Helping your kid organize a birthday party is a very normal and reasonable thing to do.
Unless your child is a budding socialite, they will normally invite a handful of friends.
A womanwonderedif she went overboard with her revenge on a nosy and pushy teacher.
Similarly, a teacher cant suddenly start dictating what this mom can and cant do at home.
This is simply not how anything works.
After all, her somehow penalizing a newly turned nine year old over this is absurd.
Its like walking up to yourneighborsand hammering on their door to demand they change the wallpaper.
So the teachers request is entitled, weird and pretty self-important.
Indeed, the fact that the mom started by reasoning with her instead of immediately laughing says a lot.
While there is a kernel of good intentions here, it seems nearly impossible to justify her actions.
Instead, the very threat of this sort of retaliation is justexcessive.
This is the sort of thing that will color her relationship with this teacher forever.
What if this isnt even her rule, but something the school forces her to do?
What if she was under pressure from previous experiences?
These sorts of threats are just excessive.
