My oldest dd is 5 years old and today we went to enroll her in Kindergarden. I was very excited and so was she. Well I do not live in a really nice neightborhood and so we dont have a very good public elementary school. But I though how bad can kindergarden be?
Well while enrolling some of her other classmates where there and lets see what all happened in a 15 min period:
-they stabbed her 5 times with a paper clip they had undone to make it long. She has red swollen bumps all over her arms because of it.
-pushed her down
-called her an "a**hole" and were laughing at her (she was the only white person there so I guess it was reverse discrimination is how I felt). I have never in my life treated someone who was a different color any different, and I expect the same.
The mother of these children did nothing so I had to yell at them to stop harrasing my dd, who is the sweetest child and was trying to play with these kids. Then I told the teachers and the enrollment lady what was going on and they looked over and saw them holding the paper clip and going after another child and just went "Ohhh, hmmm" and did NOTHING at ALL!
Needless to say I walked right out and my child will just not go to school. There is no place else for me to put her, the private school are $300 a month (which I can not afford at all right now) and no one around here is accepting transfer students in the district or out of the district.
I am not one to easily freak out but how am I supposed to drop my child off with these people to "learn" when I can't even feel safe where she is.
I remember kindergarden being a lot of fun. I can't belive what I saw today.
