Irish,

It's all fine and dandy to bring up your kids with the right values, but then they get into school with all the kids who weren't brought up with those values. Don't worry about the teacher's ideas of behavior, peers are far more influential.
My wife is also a "recovering teacher " (her term) as are about 10 of our friends (pause to think about that for a minute, 10 people in my circle between the ages of 25-35 went to all the trouble of becoming teachers, only to walk away from the thing they wanted most, what hope does that give you for the future?) anyway, she and I were discussing how every parent when confronted with undeniable evidence of their child's misbehavior always attributed it to "falling in with a bad crowd" How nice that it was never their child's responsibility, and as a result certainly not a reflection on parneting.
