I am a mother of 3 children, a 10 year old, 2 year old (today!) and 5 month old. I am a social worker working towards my LMHC. I have chosen to return to work because I love my career and I am very passionate about the well-being of low income families.

To make a long story short: On Monday, August 12, 2019 my 2 year old son was pushed to the ground on his back by a teacher, he is 2 and language delayed since having on and off ear infections the winter of 2018. Mind you, this is a Montessori school. I witnessed it walking in to pick him up. She lied to the director and said she was 'applying sunscreen'. I buy spray sunscreen - this one to be exact https://www.amazon.com/Alba-Botanica-Tropical-Fruit-Sunscreen/dp/B00UN2K7JE/ref=asc_df_B00UN2K7JE/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312153186848&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15922848742676328647&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9001928&hvtargid=aud-829758849484:pla-487977948851&psc=1

Since then she hasn't said a word to me, the school has yet to apologize and she STILL works there! I was also supposed to send my 5 month old there, thankfully we pulled them both out and they are now with a loving, safe caregiver.

I have filed with EEC and DCF, I am waiting on the legal report from EEC, DCF screened this out. I am talking to school advocates and legal support but in the meantime, she should not be working there. I am scared of what this woman is doing when no one is looking and she should not be working with children anymore. It haunts me daily. The mom guilt is real.

Please share and let me know if you know how to fix this.
