  Case: The last year
On the first day of the school year the parent comes in stating that last year their child was constantly in trouble for no reason and that they will be coming in weekly to check up that you are doing your job correctly. They state that they have no hesitation in
taking it further. The parent was quite threatening. How do you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would not minimize the parent's concern. I would validate their concern and encourage them to come into the classroom as often as they'd like. I would note how I appreciate parent involvement and feel the student is more likely to succeed when the parent and teacher work as a team. I know I would do the best I could with my class so I would have no problem with this parent.

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 think this solution is the lease useful because while we want parents to be reassured and feel comfortable but they can be a big distraction. The student whose parents are there will want to talk to their parent and this will distract the other students as well.
