Case: Parents who encourage their child to hit back
I have several parents tell me that they encourage their child to hit back if another child hits them. I have explained the school policy several times and the consequences, but they refuse to tell their child to not hit back. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would continue to make school expectations, rules, and procedures clear to students and their parents. Anytime that you can tie a review of school policies and procedures into the lesson would be beneficial for the students. Hopefully none of the students get in a fight but if it comes to that point it is best to follow school and county procedures in discipline. The parents may be upset that their child gets in trouble for continuing the violence after they have been hit but you can't bend the rules to please a few parents. |

Comments: You will always get adults that complain about the policy. Even if your school had a policy where every student automatically received an A for every assignment and test, at least one adult will complain that either their student didn't deserve it or that this doesn't let their child stand out compared to other students (gotta love the cutthroat world known as grade point average).
All you can really do is emphasize the rules. Heck, one of my old teachers back in school unofficially told us that he would tell his child to fight back even though he tells us to follow the procedures (I honestly forgot the teacher's name). I wish there was more advise that I could give but that's all I can think of. |

Comments: I think that this is the best solution to parent ignorance on school policies, just remind them of what the discipline is for hitting another child. |

Comments: This is really all you can do however most parents are aware of the policies. At that point you have to remember that their parents are not concerned with the school policy and more concerned with their child defending themselves. They probably would not be upset if their child got in trouble as they wouldn't see it as their child acting out. |
