Case: Teacher-Parent Relationship I am a fairly young teacher, and I teach in the same high school I graduated from. Therefore, I know a lot of the parents of the students I teach and coach. I had a relationship with the parents prior to teaching their kids. Therefore, there have times where that parent comes up to me and asks me about a student other than their own because their child is about to start dating them or hanging out with them. Unfortunately, I have to tell these parents that I cannot discuss with them another student that is not their own. How can I express this to the parents without straining the relationship that I have had with them for many years prior? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I think this is a difficult situation where as teachers it is forbidden to talk about other students; however, I understand how parents can be concerned about their child/adolescent hanging out with a new friend. I think I would suggest that they meet that student's parents so they can decide if they want their child to be involved in a friendship with the other student or not. |
