I went to the school this morning with my daughter and spoke to the principal. We showed her the paper with a page long description of this case, with our last name on it. She said the teacher is new from another province and this was totally coincidental. He probably picked it because it was in the media all over Canada - media loves this kind of thing. She apologized and said she would try to take all the papers and destroy them. She also pointed out, she will tell the teacher if he wants to give examples of real life cases in the future.... to run them by her first, because you never know if students families might be involved.

When we 1st heard this, we were very triggered and upset.....when that happens people tend to react worse. Even in the heat of a moment I'm not a person who swears or yells, but this is a good lesson to calm down before speaking to anyone. So I'm very pleased this went so well - all the staff are wonderful at this school. Thanks to everyone who responded to this.
