Just imagine, you just get off work, the teacher from school called," Your kid is so annoying, he can't sit in his chair for 3 minutes, he doesn't like to do his homework, bla, bla...". What will you do?
Thanks for reading and responding my discussions!

Firstly, and all in all, i get that you are married with a kid at least.haha Secondly,i don't have a kid and there's no reason i could feel what you feel. but, thirdly, i d still go on with my response.
In my eyes, a teacher is to guide his students and the students' parents as well.Complaining shouldnt be the main part to be stressed during the communication with parents.Coz we all could imagine not a father or mother is willing to hear that his or her son is stupid! I have been a teacher for quite some time, and one thing i learned is there're much more slow students than the really smart ones,I have been there too, and the more encouragement you deliver to them, the faster you can expect they can become.

Hi vivianchen,
Definitely I will be upset because I don’t want to listen bad things about my kids
. I think each parents are like this, they never like to listen bad about their kids. But I am proud that my elder son is doing well in school. So far I haven’t heard any such problems from my son’s school and younger is yet to start his schooling. Behavior problems in children should deal with utmost care.

Any situation at school needs to be dealt with at school. You can not help it if he can't sit on his chair for no more than 3 minutes. Could it be that the chair may be uncomfortable to him. They will need to find a way to make him comfortable. The homework may be to easy or the home work may be too hard for them which they don't understand. Home work should show the parents what the child is doing at school. So everything they are learning should be covered in the homework. If the homework is boring, then the teachers may have to look at making it more interesting and fun. Children learn better if they they are having fun.
My son's school rang to say that my son is starving at school and asked if I had food at home. I found out in the phone call that my son was saying that there was no food in the house. The teachers would feel sorry for him and give him either money or their own food. I told the school, that there is always food in the house. My son is responsible of making his own breakfast and lunch. If he chooses not to make lunch then it is his own choice, but he has no right to ask for food or indicate that he is starving. I am trying to teach him a lesson plus, I would like to know that he is able to look after himself if I am unable to look after him.
I even get complaints about my daughter. Of course, she is no angel but there is no point of trying to correct her ways if the school punishment is given later. They need to address the situation there and then on the spot. They need to look at what is causing the problem and what they can do to fix it.
What happens at school needs to be dealt with at school. And anything that happens in my home, I deal with it at home.

I have gotten angry at a teacher for complaining about my daughter.She complained that my daughter didn't get along with the others ,I felt mad because that teacher wouldn't face up to the fact that the otyher children picked on my daughter.The teacher had nerve to yell at my child about it.That's why today I home school my daughter,that way I can see she's not mistreated.I did tell that teacher off.
