Avoiding Confrontations With Students And Parents

Let’s face it. No one likes a confrontation. Often, confrontations come out of the blue, and we can find ourselves in a very uncomfortable position where we need to quickly find the right words to defend ourselves. I’ve been a teacher since 1977, and I have experienced my fair share of unpleasant confrontations with students, parents, teachers, and even administrators. But the most difficult confrontations to deal with are those that occur in front of your class. These confrontations are not taking place out in the hallway between just the student and you as the teacher. They occur in plain view of every student in the room, and your students become an audience watching a drama unfold that has the potential to damage your future ability to teach in that classroom. Confrontations that occur between you and another adult can damage the relationship and leave everyone suffering. Take a listen to this episode of Anti Bullying 101. Jim will  give you some sure fire ways to deal with confrontational students and parents and help you become more situationally responses not reactive.
