Case: Mother
You are teaching one of your classes, when all of a sudden, an outraged Mother comes through the door and knocks down everything in her way. The parent's child and you have had a difficult time lately, due to disciplinary problems in the classroom. You have tried to set up meetings with the parents, but they refuse to come in, they just claim that the child is not at fault. You have just given the student another detention that day, and they had to call home. The mother is sick of you giving her child detention. She is yelling everything in the book at you and threatening to hurt you. It seems there is no way to calm her down, and there is a possibility that any move might make her go into attack mode which would threaten the students. What do I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Immediately upon arrival in class, the emergency button should be pressed and student safety should become priority. Asking students to move away from the door, and essentially the danger, would be step one. Teacher should then walk towards parent and cooperate with them outside of the learning environment to ensure student safety. Being able to "latch" on to what they are saying and be empathetic goes a long way in calming people down. |

| Comments: This situation is difficult no matter how you look at it. Number 1 the students safety is priority one! Staying calm during the process will allow the students to remain clam and allow the teacher to move the parent out of the room. I thin this is a safe solution to the problem. |

| Comments: Although I agree that the students' safety comes first I do not think it is a good idea to step outside into the hall way alone with a screaming angry parents who is making threats towards you. Latching on to their words, while a good strategy, obviously has not helped you thus far with this parent so I doubt it will help now. |
