[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher and recently had a dad get semi aggressive with me.  I no longer share anything other than positive things with the family.  I avoid them as much as possible.  There's concerns about the child developmentally, but I'm not going to talk with the family about that because it is a risk.  I'm not risking my safety over it.[/quote]

This is disgusting. If you have developmental concerns about a child, you share that information with the family. You share it with the mom with the principal and other people present. No one is going to jump you just because you say their child needs to be evaluated. [/quote]

Nope.  Last meeting with the dad I actually had to step back because it looked like he might get in my face.  I will do every single thing to help the child while in my class.  But I'm not dealing with crazy aggressive men.  If he wants proper information, he should treat the people who care for his child all day, every day, with minimal respect. [/quote]
Then talk to the mom. You're probably the reason she had to bring him in to the meetings in the first place, because you don't do anything to help the kid.[/quote]

Sounds like you might have some anger issues just like him.[/quote]
