  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!)
When you have a student that is a child of a staff member, they could be treated the same as a regular parent. They of course have an edge on the communication and participation but everything else should stay the same. If they are true professionals they will understand the boundaries lines.
