Recently heard from a friend that this obnoxious mother of a rude pri sch boy accuses the teacher for keeping his exam papers because she suspected that the teacher picked on him for some obvious reasons. The fact was that this boy has a bad filing system and the exam paper was found sandwiched among his worksheets when he got home. This mother didn't even give a word of apology, and the boy didn't even say that he'd found his exam paper, until the teacher queried him. The teacher was pretty fed up and enquired about demanding an apology from this parent thru the Principal but the latter said that parents are like customers and they could not do such things. I'm sure there are many other teachers out there who are facing such similar issues but seems like Ministry Of Education (SG) isn't doing much about the "How to handle problematic/difficult parents" issue faced by most schools.
