What should I do?                 Submit a Possible Solution Please read response(s) below (if any) before posting your solution.                 Solution 1 Posted October 13, 2020 8:36 pm Keri C Reps: 87 In this situation, I think you politely tell the parent that you'd be happy to discuss their child's grades and behavior at a more appropriate, mutually agreed upon time. You can indicate that you need to gather materials and examples to have a meaningful conversation. You can tell the parent that you will reach out (via phone, email, or whatever communication has been decided) and give them multiple date/time options for the meeting. Be sure to follow up withe the parent timely to get the meeting scheduled.

I think that response is more than fair.

I would ask the parent to email me and set up a time or set up a time in the moment if you're able to.

This is an inappropriate thing to do and I would remind them of that in a nice way.
