A homeroom teacher distributed a parent-teacher meeting invitation, which read: "Invite Mr./Ms.: Birth certificate without father..." even though he knew the student was the child of a single mother.

The incident happened at a secondary school in District 12, Ho Chi Minh City. The student who was “discriminated against” was in 7th grade.

According to a parent's reflection, the invitation letter for the parent-teacher meeting at the end of the first semester that a 7th grade student at a middle school in District 12 brought home was written "Inviting Mr./Ms. "Birth certificate without father" to the parent-teacher meeting.

Below the invitation letter was the signature of the NTC homeroom teacher, along with a note that parents must bring the invitation letter when attending the meeting. As soon as the invitation was received, the student's family was quite upset.

According to family members, although this student is a single mother, the teacher's way of sending the invitation letter made the family angry and heartbroken, so the family went to school to complain to the homeroom teacher.

Through working with the parents, the homeroom teacher initially did not admit it but "passed the blame" saying that it was the class monitor who handled printing the invitations, not her.

Frustrated by the shifting of responsibility, the parents reported it to the school and the teacher later accepted responsibility.

The reason is that in the student's records, the birth certificate was indeed saved as above, the teacher printed it out and sent it to the student without paying attention to each situation, which was a mechanical error and negligence on the teacher's part. Immediately after being reported, the principal and the homeroom teacher went to the student's house to apologize, the teacher was also dealt with internally./.
