We are senior moms and dads and look forward to your kind-hearted comments.

My daughter started summer school at Nikkei this summer.
She is 3 years old and this is her first time in kindergarten and she is very naughty, so on the first day she had to leave the classroom.
She looked very stressed about it and the teacher nailed me and told me to be sure to tell her at home. I know it was hard, but it was said in the same way as the first and second days. \I know she is tired and I know she is bothering my daughter 😞
but I am depressed because I wonder if this teacher will be okay and I am worried about sending my daughter there in the future.
I don't think she is a bad teacher, but when I go to pick her up, all she says is negative things again, that she is bothering my daughter, and that she is trying her best to teach her things at home, but it's not going well.
My father speaks English at home, so I usually do my best to teach her Japanese, but she still seems to have more difficulty communicating with me than with other children who speak only one language.

The teacher seems mature and very kind, but she says, "It was like this, so let's work together to get used to it while getting support at home again!" I am worried because it is not a positive feeling like that.
I felt so much annoyance that I couldn't stop crying after returning home. I'm worried about my daughter, who is just a rambunctious little thing, going to kindergarten, and I'm skeptical about leaving it in the hands of the teachers.
I heard that this kindergarten has had many problems, but my friends' children go there, and it didn't seem so bad when we visited, so it's even worse.
I know this sounds like I'm still a newbie, but have any of you had this experience?

I can understand if you're an expat.

Because it's now or never. I am Japanese-American because I want to have an environment where I can learn Japanese ＆ culture as much as possible when I am young because I am English from Kinder.

Japanese Americans of Japanese descent who can speak Japanese will have parents with high income or solid educational concepts.
I feel sorry for Nikkei who cannot speak Japanese and cannot read and write.

You can learn to speak English like a native if you live here under 18 years old.

My point is
graduating from a Japanese kindergarten and entering a regular English school. No matter how you think about it, children are confused and it takes a while for them to adjust
because you throw them into an English environment all of a sudden. ？
How much Japanese culture can a child learn in a Japanese-Japanese kindergarten that he/she will attend for only a couple of years ？ He/she will forget in a year
He/she can speak but cannot understand, read or write difficult Japanese.
I guess it's the ego of the mothers who don't speak English and don't think about their children's future.
