Exactly. This is ridiculous. I worked in a school cafeteria for 16 years, 400 students from Pre-K to 12 and put up with the same thing. Luckily, 99% of the time I stood up to the person and was the one to go to the office FIRST and take them with me. I had 5 kids go through the school, and our son was always getting into something, a lot of the time because he would NOT stand up for himself, and ended up taking the blame solely, when other kids were involved. Never made too many friends some years, but no way can she do you this way and get away with it. Call the Labor Relations Board, because I doubt you, as a non-certified worker, is part of the teacher's union, but DO not let this go. Your little boy is the most important person in this mess, and you need to make sure this is not going to carry over into his next school year. To be honest, its probably too late, rumors carry from one person to another, and I have friends who are teachers, as well as a sister (retired) and its a bad deal when the teacher goes to the next year's teacher(s) and says, "OMG, you just wait until you have little Johnny Jones!!! That kid is a menace to society, and YOU sure will have your work cut out for you!!!!! You just wait!!!" I have heard teacher SAY it to other teachers in the kitchen when they stand around before classes getting their drinks and stuff. This is in NO way a barb at the good teachers. I know you are out there . . .but you all have someone you work with who cannot let a kid along sometimes about things. Hope this gets better. You absolutely should not have been told you are going to have to choose between the job and your little boy. No way No How!!!!!!!
 
I would call the district superintendent and tell him/her the story. I'd make sure that I have all my facts straight and that I have witnesses that would be willing to speak to the superintendent if necessary. I once had an incident with a sitting principal. I couldn't believe how he was speaking to me and HE told me to go to the superintendent with my problems. Well, I don't think he thought I would. I called, told my entire story, quoted the guy and many of his disparaging remarks and he never sat in as a principal again. No body wants this sort of thing in the media...a working mom with a special needs child gets canned because of an immature teacher? How would that look? I'm sure there is more to the story but whatever it is it's not right to take it out on a child EVER!!
 
I wouldn't have that woman teaching my child, she sounds like a nasty piece of work. Mean teachers can do a lot of emotional damage to children.
 
My son hates school now I have to beg him everyday to get going in the morning and he cries and says he doesn't like school anymore.

This is the point where I would go to the school board AND contact CPS about the teacher.
 
when I was in the 7th grade, the teacher said in front of the whole class that I acted like an 8 year old, but to say that was an insult to all 8 yr olds he knew. The whole class laughed & I got bullied for months because of it. It made me cry. His name was Mr. Ray Gates, Bookcliff Middle School, Grand Junction CO. I had daydreams of murdering him for years. This is also the guy who stuck me in a closet in the teacher's lounge rather than deal with me.
 
If your son is punished for speaking to you about issues, then why don't you ask the principal to punish the teacher when she talks to you about issues.

I also work in the school's cafe' and had issues like this. I started to go in the teachers class on my time to bother her with my concerns. When she would complain about it, I would state to her that it is no different then when she did it to me. The teacher tried to play it off as her time was more important. So I had to explain to her that my time with the children was more important then hers because they need to eat in order to learn. Then I place a complaint with the supers office. I now have another child is this same class and don't have any issues at all. Just let the teacher know in your actions that you are not going to take or tolerate her.

Good Luck!!!!
