What should you do if your child says he doesn't like his Preschool teacher? I think the first thing you should do is have a conversation with your school's director about it. You don't want to go to the teacher and say, "My child doesn't like you." I find that when children make statements like, "I don't like school." "I don't like my teacher." That's not really what is going on. There may be something happening within him emotionally that will come out verbally. "I don't like them." "I don't want to do that." It will come out in a negative way. So a little investigation about what's going on with your child, is the best thing.
