Case: Sexist Parent
I have a male student that works very well with the other boys in the classroom but when it comes to working with the girls he says a lot of sexist comments such as, "Why do you even try when you're just going to end up in the kitchen." I asked for a conference with the parents and found out that the father has been teaching him very sexist things. He continuously disrespected me and told me that what his son was saying is the truth in the end. His mother was not there and so I felt very uncomfortable and very mad that his father was treating me this way. I have tried contacting the mother to try and get her to come in but she constantly cancels on me and does not respond to any of my emails or notes. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The fact that this student is belittling other is a non-negotiable in the classroom setting. After clearing this with your administration, I would notify the parents and the student that such comments are a type of prejudice and sexist comments. Therefor they are under the bullying umbrella. With this said, further disrespectful comments will be written up and disciplinary acts will be taken. Be clear on the boundaries of what an individual family believes and what is allowed in the public school setting. |

Comments: It is clear that the child is learning it from his father, so I would explore my options before I result to punishing the child. |

Comments: I would definitely do this. Making it a zero-tolerance issue would definitely reduce the behavior and possibly prevent behavior like it from other students. Since it falls under bullying, the parents will have to either agree or ask to move their child. |
