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 begin by stating that it is a new year and that I am a not the same teacher that their child had previously. Given this, there is no reason to check on me because I have not given them a reason to do so. I would politely ask that they allow me the time to get to know their child and trust that I will be able to handle them appropriately. |

| Comments: I think this is an appropriate way to respond to the situation. That is a tough situation to be in. I like the points about explaining it being a new year, the fact that you are a new teacher, and that there is no basis for them to be so defensive. It is important to let the teacher get to know the student. I like the calm and confident approach. If the situation got any worse, however, I would definitely let an authority at the school know the situation so they would be aware of what is going on. |

| Comments: No matter how the parents act it is always important to let them know that you have an open door policy instead of telling them there is no reason to check on you. I do not think it is right to tell the parent that you have not given them a reason to not trust you but instead see where the parents are coming from. If the parents start to be rude or threaten more I would tell the principal. |

| Comments: You sound aggressive towards the parent. I think you should tell them that they can stop by when they want but your not that teacher so things should be different. |

| Comments: I agree, just let them know you are not like that teacher last year. If you want to let her check in a few times that's fine and if the child is not complaining, then the parent should let you be. |
