Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         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!) I would definitely talk to the guidance counselor and find out from them on what ways they would approach this situation in communicating both with the parents and the child.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: I believe this is problem that does not need to concern a guidance counselor. Instead, it needs to concern higher up authority such as a principal who can help run a appropriate meeting among parents and teacher.
