Handling a teacher that's picks on your child

March 30, 2018 11:33am CST
There are teachers that don't love some kids and one's kid might meet such a teacher, if your child finds his or her self in such a situation, how should a parent handle such situation?

Teachers don’t have to LOVE a child. Their job is to educate them and treat them fairly. If you think that a teacher isn’t treating your child fairly, you should contact that teacher. Not everything a child tells their parent is true

but the teacher don't have to pick on the child either don't you think so?

@augusta123 you are assuming that the teacher is actually doing something wrong. You need to contact the teacher to find out what their response is first.

It should immediately be reported to school authorities and to the police if in case physical harm has been done too.

Write down everything that has happened so that you don't forget anything and make an appointment with the headmaster. If things don't get better, find out if the child can be transferred to a parallel class.

Well stated, I think it will be the best bet.

That's a tough one... Sometimes, confronting the teacher makes it even more rough for your child, especially after you leave and it is just the child and teacher again. So, instead of the teacher, maybe confront the principal privately, and ask the principal to say to the parent that an anonymous person is concerned. I hope this makes sense and helps..

No you should always contact the teacher first. Going straight to the principal is the wrong call.

Favoritism is indeed rampant. One of the words I cringe, may it be here, outside, real or virtual, office or personal. Some people just do not know how to be impartial. If I were the mother and this is the case, I would immediately talk to the teacher and if she doesnt change and still do her own bidding, I will report her. As I said, I am not someone to be reckoned with. Trust me when I say that.
