Case: Teaching "Teacher Kids"
Working as a teacher presents us with a task like no other. We have to deal with, not only our students, but their parents as well. Oftentimes, for me, I have great communication skills with my parents. I take the time to give them what they need, and they feel comfortable reaching out to me. The only time this gets cumbersome is when I teach a teachers kid, or teaching a child of a staff member in the building. How do I establish boundaries with these parents? Should I approach them differently than other parents? How do I separate school from a possible outside friendship?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Our school ask us to ask the parents what is the best form of communication. (i.e. email, phone call, conference)
Then we are asked to not comment to our fellow faculty member, both positive or negative, throughout the work day. We must reach out to the parents like we would to any other parents. |

Comments: I think that parents who are teachers, co-workers, or friends need to be treated differently because you have to take an extra step to let them know that in your classroom they are going to be treated as all the parents. Thus, setting the boundaries with them is crucial. |

Comments: I can see both advantages and disadvantages to this. The parents are close, so sometimes it is just easier to call their room when something comes up like a medical situation or another situation. It is still important to treat all parents the same regardless. |

Comments: I think that in regards to the child communication can be handled like any other parent but you can still have a professional relationship with that person if their kid is in your class. |
