[quote=Anonymous]Set boundaries and a time frame - and stick to them. like Back to School Night when it's NOT about the individual child In this case, it is, but parents need to understand that the discussion should be constructive and not punitive. The school should have sent out letters with guidelines, and teachers should know how to stop a parent from leading meeting in the wrong direction. [quote=Anonymous]When I taught, I was always SO leery of any parent, teacher and student meetings. So often, if I gave any constructive feedback, the parents would start drilling the kid and in some cases, berating the child. The kid would be embarrassed, I would be embarrassed and I think the parents were embarrassed as well. I really didn't like them. I tell you this not as a judgement of the teacher holding the conferences, but as a caution, to you the parent. Take what the teacher says in-stride and discuss with your child (the good and bad) in private. [/quote][/quote]
