So a bunch of us got what has to be the most vile, hateful, and vitriolic email I have ever received in eleven years at The School.
It was five single-spaced pages of threats and condemnations and was just mind-blowing. It basically was the parents demands on how we were to teach her child. This is the sort of email you'd expect halfway through the year when a kid has been expelled and has had a long history of issues. Not something you expect the Third Freaking Day from a kid that you haven't had a lick of trouble from.
Makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. (Actually makes me feel sorry for the kid.)
God bless The Principal. She called us into a meeting after school and said that we were not to have any personal one-on-one contact with this parent. She was going to run interference. Thank goodness.
It's one thing to deal with bullies at school, who are kids, but another dealing with a bully who's actually a parent.

So sorry! I think dealing with parents is the hardest part of the job.
Yikes! We got a similar letter this year, and my jaw just about hit the floor when I read it. Glad you had an admin who is going to try and keep you all out of it!
