[quote=Anonymous]One of the hardest parts of my job is that MoCo parents treat each MS assignment like a legal contract and pore over it looking for loophole to excuse the fact that their child either did not do the actual work assigned or did it erroneously. As a joke one year, I had my best friend's DH (a torts lawyer) look over a project packet the week before I assigned it. He returned it with 10 little Post-It flags pointing out places where there was a tiny bit of wiggle room in interpretation if someone was really reaching (or as he put it, "an a-hole"). I fixed those weak spots and parents actually complained that my version was worded differently than the other teacher of the same course![/quote]
