There's something on this board that has been bothering me, and I hope I can articulate it.

I would also seriously question the professionalism of a teacher who engages in petty gossip about her students' families. That alone would lead me to question the quality of the school.
ITA! I was appalled by that post. I can't imagine a teacher spouting off such garbage. More evidence of the peculiar neighbourhood CLW lives in.
But, it CHANGES the hard wiring that is taking place. The amount of time spent is irrelevent if this research is valid. It doesn't wreck, destroy or disable hardwiring b/c the hard wiring is occurring. To me it simply isn't worth the risk. It is probably already too late for my ds. Thankfully dd hasn't shown any interest in the pc. To wean my son from the pc I am limiting his use to Sundays for 20 minutes. I bought him a toy pc that has an lcd display which is supposed to be less damaging.
In that situation, then it would be fine.
Your "socio" status won't change, but surely the economics do.

It is not unusual for teachers to hand parents charts that show where their children are with respect to the rest of the class nor would it be considered gossiping for a teacher to explain a gap like this one in the class. There was one cluster right around 8 missed and then you dropped straight off to more than 35 missed. Dd#2 was the only child in the class this year to miss none. I know that because on the chart there's only one child at zero and I have her test which has her missing zero.
