Have you seen any of these parents recently …? Permissive AnnieAnnie becomes disturb when you set boundaries and limits for her son John. He's five years old and sometimes his passion overflows into troublesome or hostile behavior. Annie is so lenient that even when John gets out of control, she insists that "boys will be boys" and does nothing to direct his performance. Busy BennyAs usual, Benny had too much to do and couldn't be present at the parent meeting last Thursday night. On Friday, she had to leave hurriedly and forgot to take home Mona's beloved painting of a "dinosaur eating marshmallows in the desert." in spite of notes, newsletters, and personal conversations, Benny claims that she is unaware of the activities and events which take place at the center, and too full of activity to become involved even if she knew what was going on. Detached DenisDenis comes to major functions, but or else keeps his distance. No matter how welcoming you are, he keeps you at arms' length. You feel his son Jess would advantage enormously if his father took an active attention in his education. Over-Protective NinaNina dresses her daughter, Charles, in four layers of clothing on a pleasingly warm day. Charles is by no means permitted to eat sweets (even on special occasions). Recently, Nina won't allow Charles to finger-paint for dread that she will get her clothes soiled. Negative NellNell enjoys finding mistake with other people. He smiled as he pointed out the misprint in your newsletter. He was angry when his daughter Ashley's shoe disappeared in the sandbox. He hardly ever says anything positive about his daughter's experiences and regularly refers to how much Asti enjoyed "Rainbows and Roses," the center she previously attended. Wonderful JennyJenny volunteers so frequently that other parents believe she is a teacher. Jenny organizes field trips, bakes special treats, shares enrichment materials, and spends time in the classroom. She treats teachers with respect, indisputably appreciates the care her son Jim is receiving, and is vigorously involved in all aspects of her son's education. If child care professionals could design a perfect parent, that parent might be like "Wonderful Juanita." In reality, however, parents have different personalities and parenting styles. We want parents to be involved. We want them to attend programs and read the newsletters we send home. We want parents to be attentive to the needs of their children. We want them to set aside the "baby-sitter mentality" and appreciate and value us as professionals. But no matter what tricks we pull out of our hats, we'll never clone the perfect parent. We can, however, recognize, accept, and appreciate the diversity of parents and families, and use that ability to our benefit. The ability to communicate with parents helps us to bring out the best in parents and encourages them to become involved in their children's education. Here are a few tips on how to work well with parents-regardless of their personality. Walk in Their ShoesAccording to nursery teacher training course, teachers are expected to be sensitive and understanding. Remember that parents really care about their child even if they don't label their child's clothing as you asked them to and even when they don't come right away when you tell them that their daughter has a temperature of 102 degrees. In today's working environment, parents face many challenges and many limitations. It's critical for child care professionals to empathize with the parent's world, just as we would like them to understand the challenges of our profession. We must also be sensitive when informing parents about their child's day. Instead of saying, "Johnny disrupted the whole class with his cursing, again!" say, "We interested Johnny in three new words today that were long and fun to pronounce. It seemed to help keep him from using bathroom talk. What kinds of things have worked for you at home?" This type of statement communicates your intervention strategy, but it also allows for input from the parent. Communicate CompetitivelyWhen it comes to communicating, join the competition! Getting and keeping parents involved takes effort. Parents are busy and we must compete for their time and attention. Bearing that in mind, we have to be skilled communicators and our communication tools (e.g., handbooks, newsletters, and notes) must be written to be read. Short articles, lots of graphics and a little humor are helpful in getting and holding the attention of parents. Speaking personally to parents, on a regular basis, is also important. Parents want to hear stories about their children. Imagine how comforting it is if someone actually saw Darlene head for the doll corner with the scissors and caught her before she did any damage! Let parents know that you are doing a great job of teaching their children and keeping them safe. Lose the JargonTeacher training course, recommends teachers to communicate effectively, they must not use jargon. A parent can easily be put off when we toss around terms such as visual-motor integration, prosaically behavior, or developmentally appropriate practice. When we use slang we may sound like an expert but may not be helping parents to understand how their child is learning. Using terms that only professionals understand creates a blockade that is hard to overcome and may be threatening too many parents. Offer Different Levels of InvolvementNot every parent wants to romp with five squirming three-year-olds in the pumpkin patch while they select lopsided, muddy pumpkins. Some parents feel more comfortable baking cookies than working directly with the children. Other parents may have an interest in working on a parent advisory board. Try to match a parent's talents to the tasks with which you need help. Make it a personal goal to ask every parent to become involved in some way. Be Aware of Personality and Learning DifferencesDifferent parents require different communication approaches. For instance, go out of your way to keep the busy parent informed. Listen carefully to the negative or angry parent. Take his or her advice seriously, and use it when appropriate. Make sure parents have clear avenues for venting anger, such as suggestion boxes and surveys. Some people learn best visually, some when reading, and others when listening. Vary your communication style or, better yet, incorporate all three elements into as many of your communications as possible. Find out what concerns parents have and provide the information in which they are already interested. For instance, perhaps you have a role to play in helping the permissive parent understand the value of setting limits. If the child is having trouble sleeping through the night, however, this may be the best place to start. Talk to the parent about how setting limits can help the child to sleep through the night. Personalizing information in this way is sure to pay dividends in the long run. Plan for FlexibilityFinally, when planning programs and meetings, take parents' schedules into consideration. Instead of always planning an evening program, have bagels and coffee in the morning, or plan an after-hours meeting so that parents can gather at the close of the day instead of having to return later on. Providing child care will improve attendance at almost any gathering.
