demeaning comments from parents

blue feet, I apologize if I sounded harsh...

I hope that you will take it as a compliment and appreciate that your students look to you for approval and value your opinion. I feel that children need many role models in their lives - parents are an intricate part, but a village is so much better .

That is really mean. What a way to make your child feel good and want them to continue to be active. My Mom never says anything like that to me. If I had a bad night and didn't do so well she would tell me that I made a nice effort and would say something I did well or something funny we shared as a class. That was a really harsh thing to say. She needs to learn some manners.
