One of these days I will write a guide on how to choose a good preschool in my mommy blog but today, I really want to discuss what happened in Nicole's school. When I brought Nicole to school, one of her teachers approached me because she said they were concerned about an incident that Nic shared with her classmates. Because yesterday was a Monday, the kids in class were asked to share what they did over the weekend. Nicole told the story of a "bad man" and "barilan". The teacher said they asked Nicole if she had seen a movie and Nic answered- no, there really was a man who was firing his gun.
So I told the teacher about what happened last Monday- we woke up at 2AM to a knucklehead shouting at the top of his lungs and firing his gun in the air in the next street. We really couldn't see the man but we could hear him. I was so scared I told Jay we should transfer to the bedroom downstairs. Then we heard a car drive off and then there was silence. We went downstairs and went back to sleep.
The teacher said they just wanted to know what happened so that they can help Nicole process her thoughts and feelings about the incident.
There are several factors to consider when choosing a preschool for your child. For me, knowing the teachers genuinely care about what my child is going through is a big PLUS.
