Mum left in tears after rude teacher said son's name was only fit for a dog

A mum burst into tears after her son's school teacher mocked the his name - saying it is only fit for a dog. The parent, who "would do anything for her child", is now considering reporting the staff member to the headteacher, as they no longer want them around their son.

The woman's sister had been picking up the four-year-old while she was at the dentist and overheard the teacher making cruel comments about her son's name, the Mirror reports. Her sister listened to the conversationthrough an open window and told the mum when she dropped the youngster off later.

Posting to Reddit, the boy's aunt wrote: "My sister is extremely family orientated and spent the entire summer getting her son ready for school. He was excited about going to school. He really enjoyed nursery and made a lot of friends, who he always speaks about and wants to hang out with after school."
