By Julie L. Johnson

A common fault among parents is your persistent way of annoying or pestering your child's kindergarten teacher. Now if you have been doing this unconsciously, you better stop, for it will cause animosity between you and your child's teacher. And you will be the stumbling block of your child's happy years in school. Here are seven ways you can annoy your child's kindergarten teacher.

Your child reports about his teacher's mistake in school. This will send you rushing to the principal's office. You have not even studied objectively what it was all about and believe everything from your child's immature point of view. Talk to the teacher!

You dislike the comments your child's teacher wrote on his class work. You approach the teacher and tell her to write a better evaluation of your son's work.

You compare your child's rating with the other children's and complain that the teacher is grading unfairly and showing favoritism.

You constantly gripe about the way the teacher treats your child. That he is not given importance in class, no star for his work or not given the lead role in the class play.

You defend your child's negative behavior, blaming the teacher as the instigator of it all.

You pry in the manner the teacher instructs and you tell her or write her how she can improve her teaching skills.

You believe that your side is always right. You close your ears to the opinion and statement on the side of the professional educator.

This negative behavior is an impediment to your child's success in school. Your child's teacher and you cherish the same goal: the proper development and success of your child. Each of you must respect the role of the other.

Your role as a parent is vital because you are your child's first teacher. Do not take this role lightly. If you do your role well, the teacher will have no problem in supplementing this development. The role of the teacher is to look after your child's academic development and supplement your teaching. Just as teachers do not meddle in parental duties, parents must not interfere in the work of the teacher. The two of you together will accomplish what is the best for your child.

So now knowing the seven ways you can annoy your child's kindergarten teacher, hopefully you will avoid them. This is for your child's own good.
