Preventing and Resolving Parent-Teacher Differences
It is important for teachers and parents to remember that they know the child in different
contexts, and that each may be unaware of what the child is like in the other context. It is also
useful to keep in mind generally that different people often have distinct but disparate
perspectives on the same issue.
