Case: Whiny Student, parents blame teacher
I teach first grade and have a student who whines and pouts about everything. It can be because he is not the line leader (each student has an assigned weekly jobs) to having to complete an writing assignment. He is a young student and is the youngest of the class. I follow our school behavior plan and he is on RTI 3 for academics. I talk to the parents because his grades are below average and I am concerned about academics. I have included in the my discussions that behavior is an issue. The parents simply state that "he is just trying to play you" or "you are not strict enough". I follow the rules and classroom procedures. What should I do? I believe behavior is a key issue related to his academics
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have found that the key when dealing with parents, is documentation. If I am having issues with a student, I document everything they do and how I handle the situation. Then, when I meet with the parents, I have detailed information on the issues and how I handled them. Sometimes this helps the parents understand what I am doing and how their child is behaving. Other times, I meet with the parent and an administrator to discuss what I have done and how is correlates to the school and district policies. |

| Comments: I have found that when documenting situations such as this the documentation is beneficial because it will give the parents a clear picture of the student's behavior. The documentation should describe what is going on before, during and after the event to show the parent what the student is doing, what you are doing and the outcome. |

| Comments: Documentation will be very important with an issue such as this. That way when you met with the parents, you will have specific incidences and procedures you implemented. This way the parent can see that you are trying to address the situation in the best way possible. |

| Comments: Yeah sometimes parents don't really understand the student academically and it is the role of ," not my child" it is a great idea to document everything that way it is right there for them to see and keeps from confrontation or denial from the parents. |

| Comments: I agree in documenting what is going on with this student. This is a reasonable suggestion for the teacher and once the parents are confronted with it then they should be more understanding and motivated to help resolve the issue. |
