  Case: Insistent Parent
There is a parent whose high school kid is an ESE student integrated in a regular classroom. Despite his IEP's recommendations which are followed, the parent expects the teacher to give student more individualized attention. The teacher has made clear the IEP's recommendations are followed and trying his best to work with the kid. But the parent is being insistent. What should the teacher do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
if I were in this situation, I would meet with the parent to listen to his/her concerns and reassure him/her that the IEP recommendations are being met and that I have to be fair and that every one of my students requires my attention. I would reassure him/ her that I understand and appreciate their concerns and if they feel like the IEP needs to be adjusted that I would be more than willing to help organize an IEP meeting.
