As a preschooler my daughter had a situation where the ballet teacher wouldn't let her go to the bathroom. She was so upset by this. Years later, when this ballet class comes up in conversation, DD complains about this.
DD (last yr in K) threw up on the floor during a special time the kids were getting instructions to make cookies. I asked her why she didn't leave the room or ask for help to go to the nurse? She said the class was told not to talk. I think she was so driven to be very good at school and took be quiet too literally. This was one awesome teacher. The teacher said normally she is not afraid to speak up to her. I tend to really trust my DD. This time, I think my child's view was distorted.
I'm not saying this is your situation. I just think this is something to consider. Good luck dealing with this. I hope the situation gets better soon.
