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!)
I would not argue with the parent because they are obviously irate. It is important that you so not say anything inappropriate because you want to protect your job and yourself. I would seek the help and support of administration and explain the situation. It is important that you are prepared to explain the activity, objectives, and why you were doing this activity in the classroom. Also have students available as witnesses in case evidence is needed. |
