Working With Challenging Parents of Students With Special Needs
Intimidated by an angry parent? Frustrated by a nonsupportive parent? Hands-on, specific solutions are now available to help you!
Most teaching programs do not cover how to handle difficult parents, especially parents of children with special needs. This book fills that gap, focusing both on dealing with specific problems and cultivating strong relationships with parents. The book's contents, grounded in research as well as real-life experiences, include chapters to help you:
- Generate alliances--not lawsuits--and examine such concepts as empathy and communication
- Deal with parents who are angry, nonparticipatory, or plaintive
- Work with groups with unique concerns, such as grandparents and foster parents
- Cultivate and maintain good collaborative relationships with parents
