Teacher forbids reading at break, but her father had to intervene
Cleo was recently diagnosed with ADHD and the school difference issue has been managed, but she still doesn't make any friends. In the outburst on the platform reddit, the father said the children don't know how to play with her and ignore her whenever they can.
“These kids still won't play with her and practically ice her. While I don't think they have to play with her, it also means that she doesn't socialize a lot at school. She's fine with it," Cleo's dad said.
A study at the University of Oregon found that break time is inclusive and decisive for key factors in student development. Although it seems that Cleo is not being very active, the time dedicated to reading happens in the break, as the teacher rightly said. As a professional, she worried about this difference.

The father made a decision
Recounting the report, the father said that Cleo arrived upset from school, stating that the teacher had withdrawn the reading until the next day. The teacher asked the girl to go play, while little Cleo begged to have her book back.
The next day, when the teacher was going to return the book, the father went to school to take his daughter. Pressured by the person in charge, the teacher returned the book and tried to defend herself while the father said that there are no rules at school that require children to play.
“The teacher said she was allowed to set boundaries for her class, but I said recess was free time. It's not like Cleo is reading in math class,” her father said indignantly.
After the case, the teacher left the school. The father discovered that other teachers were commenting on the colleague's attitude. The principal of the school affirmed that the father's attitude was correct and that Cleo could read during the break.
Although he thought like a father, he became fearful for appearing aggressive and regrets what he did. on reddit, users try to comfort him by saying that he did what he had to do to defend his daughter from the external problems she was facing.
