JenRose Report post Posted May 21, 2008 asking me would i be attending a meeting today at 12.30pm. so i said no unfortunately i cant make it, and i asked about the evening meetings they used to have and she said well yes theres 2 but we thought it might be better for you if we had one in the day. ???????????????????? so ive stopped being invited to the evening ones for a couple of months now and got this invite last week for today, but all my friends go to the evening one so i dont see why i should go to the ones in the day. she was extremely nice, i was surprised cos usually she,s very very sarcastic and negative towards me. the cynic in me wonders if the lea have been on to her and asked her to try and talk to me as the relationship with us and them is at rock bottom Dave thinks they are panicking over the pictures yesterday and are trying to soothe things before we kick off.

pumpkinpie Report post Posted May 21, 2008 If its a greneral meeting for parents I would just go to the one your friends goes to if thats more convienient it doesnt matter if you have an invite, the way I figure it They are supposed to be more parent friendly and flexible , so you go to the one that suits you best. I am a bit wary of parent partnership too so as llong as you dont tell them anything you dont want the lea to know youll be ok. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
