[quote=Anonymous]I hate parent-teacher conferences that have the kid sitting right there. Everyon there is rightly worried about the child's perception of the meeting instead of dealing with the real issue. Next time, try meeting with the parents without the student there. At the very least you can spare her some feelings, and you might be willing and able to be more forthcoming to the parents and they might be willing to be more forthcoming and cooperative with you. Likewise, I like the idea of meeting with the student individually and seeing if you can find out what she really needs to do A work. I doubt the issue is that she's bored, but if you can find a way for her to improve and excel, take it! And then you'd also make the dad happy too.[/quote]
