to me, this is a case of the blame game. your kid darted away - you say THEY should have held his hand and THEY should wear better shoes. it's not quite that simple.

There are how many kids in the class? How many teachers? They don't have a hand for every single child. They can't possibly have eyes on every single child.

The harness is the best solution. Its a crappy situation that they have to walk through a parking lot but it is what it is so do what is best for everyone and have them put the harness on him. Playing the blame game (and focusing on the shoes) will benefit no one.

I disagree with you and I think you'd feel differently if it was your child. I've heard from other parents who sent their child to this school that his teacher is lazy & burnt out. There is NO EXCUSE for not holding his hand the second and third time. The director completely agreed with me. Four excuses from the teacher for something they didn't do is not acceptable.

if it were my kid after the second time - my kid is in a harness. There would be no third or fourth time. I would take control of the situation and ensure his safety if I cannot ensure they would.
