  Case: Needy Parent
I have a student who's mother wants something ALL of the time. I am friends with this parent outside of school. We attend the same church. She also had my personal phone number prior to her son being in my class. She is constantly sending me texts and calling my phone after school hours while I'm at home spending time with my family. She has questions about her son school related things. How can I tell her to please contact me through my school email, school phone, or through the behavior sheet that is sent home daily? When I get home I do not want to be bothered with school stuff.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it's really important that you tell the parent this without hurting their feelings. Just tell them your home and school stuff are different.
