When a child comes home and announces, “I don’t like my teacher,” it can leave a parent unsettled. Our instinct may be to jump to conclusions—blaming the teacher, questioning the school, or even feeling frustrated with our child for being “difficult.” These reactions are understandable. At the same time, pausing before responding can open the door to more thoughtful support.
