Wow. I am stunned. I'm sure you will get some great advice - I don't know how to respond but as the Mom of a 3 year old in 'pre-school' I can imagine how you must feel and I'm so sorry. In fact, my daughter was coming home a few months ago and saying her fanny hurt and my mind jumped to that terrible place too. Honestly, with her, I believe it was just attention seeking she also told me someone threw sand in her face and when I asked her who she said Miss Cindy (her teacher) and I am absolutely certain that did not happen- I know Miss Cindy very well. Her school has been there for 21 years and it's a very small town so I convinced myself I was thinking crazy, and I think I was - that said - we all know this happens. My only advice would be to be very cautious even though you want to go charging in there - try to get your emotions in check until you have more information - gather your facts as carefully as you can. Good luck and I'll be interested to see what happens.
