Riassunto:

Practical advice for teachers is presented with a sense of humor. The stress of dealing with difficult parents remains one of the top reasons teachers cite for leaving the ranks, according to the Center for the Study of Teaching and Policy. How to Handle Difficult Parents helps teachers learn how to cope more effectively.

Learn how to handle parents like these:

• Helicopter Mom, who hovers constantly, ready to whisk away any problem or inconvenience that might befall her child;
• The Intimidator, who wants what he wants and wants it now; and
• Pinocchio's Mom, who believes that her child, unlike every other child in the universe, never ever tells a lie of any kind.

You will also find out more about the Caped Crusader, Ms. “Quit Picking on My Kid,” the Stealth Zapper, the Uncivil Libertarian, No Show's Dad, and the Competitor.
