[quote=Anonymous] I have worked at two large-ish public universities. Pre-pandemic I very rarely heard from parents. Usually, if I did, it was a really tragic situation (student in a serious mental health crisis or multiple family deaths). I could never talk to the parents unless the student gave me permission. However, parents contacting me wasn't common and I always felt the parent's reason for reaching out was justified. Starting in about April, I have heard from more parents than I know what to do with. They disagree with a grade I gave, they think I need to post more videos, they don't think I'm doing enough for their kid, etc. They call administrators too. The pandemic has been a total S-show.
