Spoke to one of the teachers at the 4th grade soccer game yesterday (she has 4th-grade twins). I had found her unusually unsympathetic on the trip. Turns out she had no idea who my night group was and is now (a) utterly sympathic and almost apologetic and (b) mad as all hell with the teacher who did the groups, and suggests he thought I might be the only chaperone able to handle them. Sorta flattering, in a backhanded way, but no fair! You got a group of 4 bitchy princesses who make eveyone's lives miserable... you at least split them up into two pairs...... and I had another "troubled" kid on top of them....
