i want to know why my kids teacher is GONE

[Anonymous]

My third graders teacher has been gone constantly this school year. She's in her mid fifties otherwise I'd think she was pregnant or parting or on drugs. She will be gone sometimes a couple weeks at a time and refuses to say why. We've only been back since Wednesday and she's only been there two days!!! I know I'm a stay at home mom but when I worked I didn't get days off like that. I got the teachers phone number from someone I know that is her second cousion and she got mad when I called and the teacher told me not to call! What the hell?! You're a teacher, you're supposed to answer school and he questions. I guess she doesn't care about my kid. The priniipal refuses to tell me why the teacher is out so much. As a parent, I deserve to know. How can I make them tell me?

It's none of your damn business why she's not there.... for all you fricken know she's suffering from some form of cancer... Is your child learning? Being protected while at school and treated with respect? If you answered yes to all of the above then btfo..

Switch your child's class. You don't need to know why she's not there.

Sounds like she's sick! Leave her alone!!

Wow...you totally overstepped.

It is none of your business. I'd been mad too.

Your child is getting an education......have some compassion.

It is her business if her child's education is suffering.

Quoting Anonymous:

It's none of your business. Maybe she has a medical condition that she does want to disclose because she doesn't want her students to know.

You were out of line calling the teacher at home.  You called the school.  If they didn't tell you then it is personal and none of your business.  If you have concerns they need to be directed at the school, not the teacher at home.

Your a sahm, school your own damn kid if you NEED to know why her teacher takes a day off!

Calling her at home is a bit psycho

If the school is fine with it then there must be a valid reason.

Like others have said, it isn't your business.

You DESERVE to know HER private life?! Seriously? You need to back off. You are completely out of line.
