As a teacher I would line up the students ( 5,6 year olds) up when transitioning to another place and "bob" them on the head.. (nicely) and sing a little bob song. The students thought it was funny and we enjoyed it daily. One morning a parent walks in and begins screaming and cursing at me. She said " My baby said you 'bobbed' her". After a meeting everything was cleared up, but I sure don't "bob" anymore. Honestly, I'm nervous to even touch the children, they are young and some children do need to have a lovely, appropriate touch but is it worth the risk? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I agree with everyone else's solutions! I think the best and safest solution would be to write a letter home or announcement to the parents explaining why you do that! Obviously, then, if any of the parents are uncomfortable with that, then you will know and will avoid any future conflict!                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original No Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do exactly this.
