I'm a total outsider taking part in this conversation since I don't have kids but I feel like you went through the correct pathways of saying "hey, I'm not cool with this." and they said what should have amounted to "we'll keep it P.C." So at that point, in my mind, if this teacher didn't know she should be keeping her personal...can I even say beliefs?... to herself she definitely should have known after that conversation. You didn't retaliate so more than ever all she needed to do was refrain from bringing any of the big topics of the movie into reality. I'm not an elementary school teacher but a large contingent of my students are under the age of 10. I'm absolutely horrified that this woman, whose career is in early childhood education, behaved this way. Let me be clear, in order to fall in line with whatever kind of value set a family has all you have to do is stop talking and listen to the child. It's written all over them, even without talking to the parent. I'm just horrified.
Part of me thinks you should invite her over for dinner. And that's really just because I can't think of a suitable smack down. If you can't control her behavior you might as well make her your friend?
