Goodness I am glad he ok!
as far as the other goings on, The main reason I quit as a Headstart teacher was when new regulations came in that included:
We were no longer allowed to hug the kids
we were no longer allowed to let them sit on or lay their heads on our laps while in the circle for story time. Nor could you put your arm around them.
we were no longer allowed to pick them up and hold them.
Do you know how hard it is to not pick up a hurt child and cuddle them when they have fallen down? or give them a quick hug for a job well done?
While I realize there is some basis of fact somewhere behind all this it makes me sad that we as teachers can no longer comfort a child without being afraid of losing our teaching licenses or worse.
