Oh, I have experienced all the different kinds of parents.
Mine didn't ever think a teacher could be wrong and no matter what, I was at fault if there was an issue.
I knew my kids were far from perfect and was willing to listen to and support the teachers when that was appropriate and was also going to stand up for my kids when that was appropriate.
I was never so angry as the year my son's grades fell off and no one reached out to me. When I went to speak to the teachers they told me they didn't bother to call me because most parents don't care...ummm....give me a chance to care or not. The judging goes both ways.
