Any middle school parents?

Question

Parents, what is your perspective on teacher-parent relationships? (non-romantic)

Answer 1

I was a middle school teacher and parent.  I wish more parents would get involved with their kids' education.  I'll admit some teachers need better personalities and sometimes make things worse than they are, but most really care how their students do in school.  meeting parents helps them understand their students MUCH better.

Answer 2

If a parent gets involved romantically with a teacher (assuming  unmarried) then...why not? Obviously if the teacher is teaching the kid things can get awkward. It can be very awkward say if the kid has issues with the teacher. But its funny...if all the people involved actually care for each other, it can work out. Take care
