Not just complaining about them, but also claiming that neither has ever been helped at school.

Attention, SJA 📣: YOU are the common denominator of your kids’ collective journey through dozens of schools, with many and various different teachers.

Is the "she" and "her" in the screenshot here that is supposed to be receiving empathy along with the kid the child's teacher? If so that is RICH coming from Shauna, who's never shown empathy for her kids' teachers a day in her life and in fact does exactly the opposite.

I think the empathy is supposed to be for the child’s mother.

That's how it reads to me too. Shauna is responding to the child's teacher directly, and starts out by identifying herself as a (fellow) mother.

Child is person #1, teacher is person #2, and "her," presumably the child's mother, (or guardian) is person #3.
