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 report the incident to her supervisor just in case it comes back later on. On the report, she should explain why the child was disciplined, the mother's actions towards the disciplinary rules, and what the teacher should do next.                 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 would try to make minimal contact with the parent, who's mind is obviously not going to be changed about her radical religious views.
