[quote=Anonymous]I volunteer at my DDs' school regularly.  I have indeed called a number of kids out, a number of times, for a number of inappropriate behaviors.  I don't recall any of the times relating specifically to my kids, but more a general behavior problem or towards another child.  (But, if the misbehavior was directed to my child, I would do the same as I would for any child in my care.)

Unless the volunteer was regularly "picking on" my child--  I would just be grateful that the school has parents willing to volunteer.

I had a situation this past year where a coach went off completely on my 10 year old daughter.  (She was wrong, but he way over-reacted to her infraction.)  I got EXTREMELY angry--  at her!!!  I reminded her this person was volunteering for HER benefit and she better repair the relationship ASAP.  I told her I would go with her when she apologized (or not-- her choice).  It was actually one of my proudest parenting moments ever.  By the end of the season, the coach was praising my daughter's leadership skills etc.  Needless-to-say, my daughter was brimming with pride, true self-confidence etc.  This is why my kids will be head-and-shoulders over the whiners/helicopter/apologist parents like OP.
