  Case: The Parent who makes verbal threats
A student is slightly injured during a game in class. His parents have been at odds previously with school personnel for a variety of reasons. The father arrives at school for a scheduled appointment you have arranged. He proceeds to make several verbal threats
and accusations towards you.
Parent : I'm not here for niceties.
You: I have been informed of your son's injury.
Parent : He isn't the only one who's going to be hurt. I'll sue you and make sure you don't have a job.
You???
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Document what was stated in a conference report, and suggest to the parent that a meeting be set-up with the principle to discuss his concerns and work towards a solution. When a threat is made, it's time to involve a mutual, outside party.
