How many times have you said to yourself 'now what was that lovely comment...'; and how revealing.  Well here are a few I have collated.  If you have some you would like to add, email me.

....of children

‘my hands forgot what to do’

‘the hardest thing I have to do at school is keeping out of trouble’

‘It doesn’t matter how hard I try I never win’

‘I don’t think I’ll do that; it’s for babies’ (when a task was seen to be too difficult)

....of teachers

‘why is his writing so awful?’

‘she’s always jumping up at the ‘wrong’ moment’

‘he’s hopeless in the gym, especially when getting changed and dressed’

‘her books are always such a mess’

....of parents

‘it’s heart breaking seeing him failing time and time again and giving up; I know he can do better’

‘to be honest we felt really disappointed that our son was not achieving what we expected ‘

'sometimes she has to complete work she didn’t finish in class as well as homework and remedial homework! She never seems to get out to play’
