This includes homework. I can tell that each parent wants to be the main parent and have the student do all of the homework with them. I can tell that the student does not like this because she is now having to do double the homework. Do I say something to the parents or just stay out. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would definitely have a conference with your administration about this, and maybe even the school counselor. Maybe as a team, you can sit the parents down and talk to them about how they are not doing what is best for their child, and are really hurting them in the long run. That is a very tricky situation, and everyone should choose their words very carefully, but make sure everyone talks about "what is best for the child."
