It seems like the teacher is out of touch with what it means to have an ill parent. That mean the child is doing everything herself and self structuring while also dealing with emotional piece of not knowing if your parent will be okay. Perhaps she is also caring for younger siblings and need to use her time to travel to and from the hospital to visit. That is not procrastinating, that is putting your emotional health first and connecting with your parent.

Refuah Shlaima!
This is so absurd I dont even know where to start.
I truly hope this imposter of a teacher takes a different job immediately. NO child should be in her class. shudder

OP I hope you have a speedy and easy recovery.
I was literally in tears after reading the email reply from the teacher.

SHE DID THE HOMEWORK!!!!!! she just didnt print it.
The teacher should have sung to her praises for doing the homework even with her life upside down! not degrade her for not being able to print it!
How many adults take off work when they have a sick parent or child? yet she expects an 11/12 yr old to be ontop of her school work and homework and function as if all is normal. Im flabbergasted!
Im so glad the principal has some sense and I really hope that teacher is on this site reading every single word (and the inbetween words we arent allowed to verbalise)

Mind blowing. I have no words. I would honestly pull my daughter out of the class, I would not want her to be under this person’s influence for one more minute. There are no middos here to speak of.
I wish you a refuah sheleimah b’karov and please make sure to emphasize to your daughter that she should be proud of herself for managing to complete the report and dealing with school while she had to worry about her mother being sick in the hospital.

ETA I just saw the update bH. I’m happy I don’t have girls this age anymore because I honestly would be tossing and turning that they could have this teacher. This is not something you chalk up to immaturity. She lacks empathy and compassion and should not be teaching.

OP, while I'm sure this took energy you didn't have and causes stress you didn't need, please give yourself a yasher koach for taking care of your daughter. From a hospital bed, with a ventilator, you were there for her as a mother- you took care of her.

By the way, kids with adhd need more leeway, not less, in times like this. Even if without the responsibilities at home, managing school is a huge stress on them in general, so when another huge stressor comes along, they have used up mucch of the energy they need just to do school normally. But it sounds like the school has your back.

And while it's not on you to advocate for the rest of the class, you have done so anyhow- the teacher's email, and her subsequent response that she even can't handle having a student with a valid excuse, has definitely opened the school's eyes to who and how she is. It will impact how theu deal with future parent complaints and will likely lead to her not being rehired next year. You have done a lot. Through email!

I did not read through this whole thread but all I can say is that this email is beyond horrible and shocking.
It's honestly hard to believe it is even true! So insane!
Refuah Shileima, please focus on yourself and your health but when you are well DO NOT let this pass.
This woman should not be in a classroom. Period.
