  Case: Worried Parents
I have received a few emails from parents concerning their children. The children that they are concerned about are the ones that are well behaved and have outstanding grades. I have high expectations for my students but I feel that the parents are being a bit over-bearing by being concerned about a 90% on a test. It is a wonderful thing that they are involved and expect perfect scores but I am struggling with how I am going to say, "your child is doing fine" without offending them. I feel that they will disagree with me and continue to worry.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would address them and explain that their test score was above class average and you are thrilled with the results they are getting and explain how hard you see them working both in class but at home with their homework.

Comments: I think this is a good solution, but I don't think that it will really be helpful as the parents seem to already know this and still want more from their child.
