  Case: Parent interactions
What should I do if I have parents who do not have the time to care about their children? I have seen cases where parents get angry at the teacher for even calling them. I also have seen cases where parents "don't care" what their students are up to in school. What are some solutions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
When parents feel disconnected or unresponsive, keep the lines of communication open by sending them regular emails or newsletters to keep them informed of the progress and activities of their child. To address their concerns and involve them in their child's education, set up parent-teacher conferences. Provide a variety of meeting times to suit their schedules. Work together with social workers or school counselors to locate relevant services or resources for family support.
