Case: Needy Parent
I have a student who's mother wants something ALL of the time. I am friends with this parent outside of school. We attend the same church. She also had my personal phone number prior to her son being in my class. She is constantly sending me texts and calling my phone after school hours while I'm at home spending time with my family. She has questions about her son school related things. How can I tell her to please contact me through my school email, school phone, or through the behavior sheet that is sent home daily? When I get home I do not want to be bothered with school stuff.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If you are friends outside of school then approach this is in a friendly but serious tone. Just let her know that while you are more than happy to talk to her about her student it needs to be done through the proper channels. |

| Comments: Yes, in this kind of situation with the teacher being good friends with the parent, then it's probably best to be honest and kind to the parent about the constant communication. The parent may just think that they are such good friends then it wouldn't matter, but the teacher is also in charge of other kids too and other parents getting in contact with them. A teacher needs a break from it all sometimes. |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this. I believe it is important to express the importance of keeping friendship/personal connections separate from work/school, that it has to be fair and professional. |
