  Case: He is just being a boy!
I was in a classroom where there was a boy who most people would call obnoxious. He constantly calls out, makes fun of other students, and try to discipline other students. When trying to talk to him about what he is doing he turns it in to a joke, also the teacher had issues with the students making fun of her. When the parents have been told whats going on the dad just says " he is just being a boy, what is the big deal?" How would you handle this issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It is important that both the boy and his father know the rules that the teacher has laid out. Also the father needs to understand that his son is not exempt from the rules simply because "he is just being a boy". Let him know that all of the students in your classroom are treated equally and that his son will be held responsible for his actions just as everyone else is. If the behavior continues disciplinary action will be necessary. The teacher should be sure to take note of all of the times the boy has interrupted the class, been disrespectful, and how he has done so. This information may be important to present should the parent complain.
