Okay, it means the loud annoying rude ones who don't listen and think the rules don't apply to them because they've never been told NO. That's what it means. That help? [/quote]

I am the poster who was the teacher.  I did not respond--but the post quoted hits the nail on the head in many ways.  These are the parents who think all the problems are the teacher's fault.

For example: the parent who does not understand that her child is not behaving because the kid is "perfect" at home.  Let's get real: no child is "perfect" at home.  I am a parent--I know this.  Fortunately, over the years, I did not have a lot of parents that said this.  It was much more common for parents to come to a conference and wait for the "other shoe" to drop--you know, you tell them that their child is doing well and everything is fine--and then they wait for you to tell them how horrible the kid behaves.  I had more of those than the former.

Field trips can be quite enlightening--a parent chaperones and her child turns into a monster when she was normally a sweetheart.
