@chickenbutt  I think we were separated at birth.

Thanks, Ali!    I like to be able to relate to somebody else, especially with feelings.

Of course, it's always easy for ME to tell YOU what you should do, right?

We tortured souls need to stick together.  lol  Knowing me, I've been dwelling on this incident for years, and if I ever decided to speak with her about it, she'd be like who are you and what on earth are you talking about?  Maybe it was all in my head... wouldn't be the first time for this crazy lady!

Not the issue at all, I know, but I also question how appropritate it was for her to bring her daughter to class on a regular basis... I'm not sure that would fly in most school settings.

      it wouldn't be allowed and no teacher would do it in any schpol I ever heard of.

I don't think I'd say anything.  Leave the past in the past.   It's possible she doesn't remember.  If I saw her again, I'd be pleasant and leave it at that.

Thanks @SaRina!  I appreciate your advice!!

As far as I know, bringing one's child to school involves permission by the Principal.

Unless you ran into her recently, I might wait unitl the next time you do... And if she still seems hostile and you don't feel able to say it face to face, then I'd opt for the note, assuming you know where to send it...

Yeah the school was private Catholic, so the rules were definitely their own.

Nah I don't think she was a nut.  Honestly, I think she was tremendously hurt and appalled that someone would laugh at her disabled daughter.  The fact that she thinks that person was me, still makes me shiver.  I went to that school from grade 7-12 and still support the hockey team.  I always hope to gawd I don't run into her again.

You were a kid.  She was the adult.  What kind of person carries such venom toward a kid all these years later?  There IS something wrong with her if she is acting out this way.

---

I think you are totally blowing what the OP has stated, way out of proportion. She said the teacher was never the same, and cold to her. That is far from 'venom' and her being nuts. 

---

Well, venom or not for someone to be unkind to a former student because of this perceived slight is ridiculous and, yes, I think there's something WRONG WITH HER.  A mature adult makes allowances for young people and doesn't take out something like this on a grown woman.  Very ODD.  I wouldn't want anything to do with her, frankly.  I've spoken my piece.  I respect others' opinions, but this is mine.

Doesn't really show here.

@AliJoi5
