We aren't a dang daycare. So, quick background. I work at a private kindergarten that is a school, not a daycare.

We teach math, reading, manners, writing, etc. Obviously, it's very simplified. We have a schedule that is posted weekly of our classes and children have to test to get in.

Due to where we are located, one of the richest neighborhoods in a very large

city, most of our children come from wealthy families. Up until now, this has not caused any more

issues than children bragging about their social level and then being humbled by not even

knowing what money is, as is to be expected. However, I have a family that is incredibly entitled

in my class.

When their child arrives, she has to strut around a bit and make everyone stop and say hi to her,

which is fine since she's five and what else should we expect.

But the issue is that she shows up five minutes before lunch almost every day,

interrupting my class when my students all get up to go and hug her

Our first issue with these parents bringing her late is that her parents refused to let us know when they're doing it and why they are doing it

They won't answer the phone if we call and they'll lie to us if we ask if they're coming today

For example, my partner teacher called and got through to the mother

and asked if the child would be coming the next day, as we had an activity to plan. And the mother

explained they had an issue with some documents that day, and that's why they couldn't come. But they'd

certainly be there for the activity. Well, guess who didn't show up and who didn't call? On top of this,

the child is straight up failing every subject.

Halfway through the school year, they don't know the alphabet, they can't do basic math, they can barely count to 10.

Meanwhile, the rest of the class has excelled in all areas, and there are five-year-olds that are already reading and doing basic addition.

But this child's mother complains that the homework is too hard for the child as if they ever actually do

it we have to deal with this almost every day all right halfway through this
