Need to get this off my chest
This has nothing to do with childminding but I need to get it off my chest.
A bit of background, we're English and have lived in South Wales for the last 6 years, my DD (3 1/2) was born here and classes herself as Welsh :) She is very shy and when gets anxious she cannot speak - I dont mean she wont I mean she cannot speak, you can actually see her forming words without any noise, shes brilliant with people she knows and feels relaxed with and has an extensive vocab.
Yesterday I was walking my dogs with my DD and Mindee when 2 older girls came to say Hello, the mindee said hello back, but my DD said nothing. The girls asked why she never spoke (they go to same primary school as her) and I said oh shes just shy, then one said "Mrs XXX from school says she doesnt speak because you speak differently at home" the other one said "yeah its because you sound different" Mrs XXX is a teaching assistant for KS2, she sees my DD on a Fri pm when they mix the whole school up for crafty fridays.
:angry: I am so furious and upset, and frustrated that I cant do anything until Monday!! thanks for reading I have no outlet as other forum I go on has local mums and dont want anyone to know as Im making a complaint to the head!
