  Case: Rude Parents
Mrs. Smith has a student in her class whose mother is very religious. She is very open in discussing her thoughts and beliefs at a conference, in a letter, or during a phone call. Her child misbehaved and was given a punishment for 10 minutes off of recess. The mother contacted the teacher the next day and instead of speaking about the punishment she began her religious banter which included telling the teacher that she was 'keeping her eye on her' and that she needed to 'get right in her religious life.' At one point the parent even sent a link to a YouTube video that talked about how Monster energy drinks are the 'devils juice' because the teacher drinks that brand. What should Mrs. Smith do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Smith should seek advice from her team mates in the same grade or hall way of her class. After, I would meet with the assistant principal of the school or the principal and put the issue with the parent in their hands. Having the help will make a plan to follow in order to cover the class, the teacher and the school if a situation occurs.
