Teacher Gets Upset After Parent Sends Daughter To School With Personalized Stationery

by Jesse

Change may be constant, but it’s certainly not the easiest of things to navigate. 

For some children changing schools may be a dreadful experience. This is because they are leaving a place they have gone to and probably have friends in a new place they don’t know much about or have any friends, for that matter.

This period also takes a lot of time for adaptation and is not only frustrating for kids, it is for parents too, as they will also have to adapt to new teachers and school policies.

Changing schools is also a delicate change that can cause long-lasting effects on children. 

According to research, children who moved around a lot as adults have fewer healthy connections. Additionally, they typically have lower levels of general happiness and life satisfaction.

Hence, parents, therefore, do all they can to make sure their children enjoy the best possible experience after making such a huge change.

We found a story that paints a similar picture. This Redditor went out of his way to ensure his daughter enjoyed a seamless transition to her new school by sending her to school with personalized writing materials.

However, her teacher was having none of it and requested that OP provide his daughter with non-personalized stationery.

OP refused, resulting in the teacher requesting a meeting with him. This led to the critical question of “AITA.”

Check out the rest of the story below!

OP explained that she got supplies for her daughter (Mia), as required by her class teacher. However, she ensured that all Mia's stationery was personalized to avoid being redistributed to other kids.

Now OP has received a note from Mia's class teacher requesting that she switch everything to generic supplies.

"NTA. I hated this as a kid. My parents would buy Crayola and I would some how get the dollar tree brand"

"It would have been very distressing to have the supplies my parents worked hard for taken away"

"You bought extra as requested and then personalized for your daughter. I don't know what the teacher has a problem with"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"Why spend all the money on buying good supplies for our children and even getting extra binders for them if they're gonna end up with crappy ones due to exchanging"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"Why aren't parents just buying supplies for their own children..?"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"There's nothing for you and the teacher to discuss. Your kid gets the premium supplies that you purchased"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"I'm all for helping out educators supply their classrooms with adequate supplies, but that doesn't mean I won't get my kids their own stuff"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"What is this about? Why should you fund supplies for someone else's children?"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"If teachers are going to do sh*t like this, it needs to be stated on the school supply form in bold print so parents and kids aren't stuck in positions like this.

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"NTA- you bought the extra supplies for the classroom that were asked for"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"The goal of combining all the supplies is so kids without much means will still have some. You sent extras to fulfill this purpose. No reason she can’t have her own"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

"NTA. You have your crowdfunded extras. My daughter has her own sh*t"

Bluecarrot002 / reddit.com

The comments section seems to be united in their stance. 

According to them, OP is not wrong in this situation, as he provided all the tools the teacher had requested and even added extra.

Do you think OP was wrong to have sent his daughter to school with personalized stationery? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below!
