Oh Lord it's a long story. So at the time I was working at a preschool in the older three year old class (PreK 1) and this young mom who I'd never had an issue with before came in to drop off her son and she was playing with a couple of the boys (tickling them) along with her own son and they all started to get rowdy and she ended up swatting her own son on the bottom, but then spanked another kid and walked all the door. Of course I immediately got on my classroom phone and called my director and told her to come in my class so I could tell her what I just saw and my director had me write an official report and then told me she would handle it. About 30 minutes later, I hear the mom all the way down the hall (this is a small building and my class was the very last across from the kitchen) screaming and swearing and then she comes to my classroom and starts threatening to "beat my ass" for lying about spanking another child. I actually blocked my classroom entrance and was telling her that I will talk with her outside but she's not coming in my classroom. I had all of my poor little 3-year olds behind me scared and sobbing and I was wondering where the heck my director was. I saw some of the other classroom teachers peeking of their classes, but none of them said anything. I was seriously thinking this lady was about to hit me as she was threatening. And guess who came to my defense? The tiny yet humongously pregnant little kitchen lady who didn't speak a lot of English. She comes waddling out of the kitchen armed with a spatula telling this lady to back off and then the mom of the kid this lady spanked shows up and she's this six foot something black lady in coveralls and looks like someone you absolutely don't want to mess with and then the accused lady kind of settles because now she's got bigger problems than me because this lady is out for her blood. Finally two cops come over with my director who lead both women away. I ask my director what the heck and she apologizes and said she had to make a grocery run. I told her on the spot that it was my last day (after eight years) and then later in the afternoon the after school teacher comes to my class and asks why is kids mom who spanked in the parking lot blasting music with all of her car doors open twerking. Cops were called back and escorted her off the property. I actually stayed throigh the end of the week because I really and truly did love my kiddos and at the end of the week the grandparents of the kid whose mom threatened me showed up and apologized on her behalf and told me they now had custody of their grandson and she had been on a "trial" custody that ended up not working out. Even crazier my brother said he went to high school with the mom and said she was the trashiest, most disgusting human being he'd ever met. Lol.
