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!)
Remind the parents about confidentiality as a teacher. The parents should understand and this should not strain any relationship |

Comments: This should not be an issue on any type of a real friendship. As an adult/ parent they should understand privacy and that it is unprofessional and cannot be discussed. |
