I wonder if it would be beneficial to reframe a show like this in the context of "a theater performance full of wonderful things - like the special effects you see in your favorite TV shows and movies, only live on stage!" (I could see this only at a school or perhaps the library; a birthday party or other gathering should be free from this - I would hope!!) Again - I do not agree with the way the teacher handled the situation (although I do agree with RJE2 and Donald in their assessments). I'm thinking only along the lines of attempting to de-fuse a potentially explosive situation involving an upset parent, a child who is singled out and doesn't know why, a pressured teacher, and a magician facced with doing a no-magic magic show. And doing so in a non-combative manner that might help with repeat bookings. Ed [/quote] [HTML is Off] [BBcode is On] Options: Disable BBcode on this Post Disable Smilies on this Post
