Thanks for dropping by. :) Hello Ria! Thanks, keep visiting and reading ;) Hi Lynn! Thanks also for visiting. Yeah, even though I didn't regret what I did, I totally understood the parent who said that to me. I even said sorry for having caused additional concern/worry. I guess different people have different ways of parenting also. My decision to ask the student to use his left (unbroken) arm was consulted with the student's adviser which also happens to be a mother. While it is true that being a mother may 'soften' me, I think being one offers a new perspective on my being a teacher but I think my teaching style will be the same ;) Thanks again! Hello Litzie! So happy for you and Denon and Baby Dustin!!! :D Enjoy your little bundle of joy. Hi Dionne! Thanks for dropping by. :)

I can relate with the 'sentiments' of the parents of your student. My 8 year old daughter had a broken arm too last year and she did not attend school for a month per doctor's advise. I wouldn't allow her too even if the doctor would say it's okay. Anyway, I was thankful her adviser and the rest of her teachers understood her predicament. Every other day we go to school just to pick up her lessons and we did the tutoring at home. After a month, I'm still worried that she might slip or some accident would happen. We were allowed to bring her and fetch her to and from her classroom. The teachers were careful too in allowing her to join the crowd of students since her arm was still vulnerable to another fracture then. If I may say, all her teachers are mothers. Maybe that's why they understood my being makulit and over protective of my daughter. Or maybe they are just doing their duties as teachers and as you said, their students are their responsibilities when inside the campus or at least, the classroom. Nevertheless, I am still thankful. I cannot really say if there would be a great difference if her adviser is not a mother. But then again, generally, a woman's heart is a lot 'understanding' when she's a mother already. As they say, at times there's that mother's instinct that comes with some decision making when one's a mother already. Just sharing my (long) thought. I got here through Pinoy Moms Network.
