Not a teacher but in my conversations with teachers in PTCs, it definitely seems like they tiptoe a lot more than I would have expected when I was growing up.

I can tell this because my third grader (who is, to a degree, special needs) objectively performs at about a kindergarten to first grade level and is often a pain in the ass behaviorally, and the teacher seemed so relieved when I was actually understanding that she is not an easy student.

Yeah my kid is in 1rst grade and he's a bit behind on some stuff, mostly emotionally, but can perform well enough on tests. Well we had a reunion with the principal and two teachers and I remember the principal telling the teachers about us "dont worry, theyre pretty receptive to feedback".

Made me think how many parents must be confrontational about anything said about their kids.
