I will be having 2 meetings with THAT Parent tomorrow and Tuesday. This was perfectly written, and I could not agree more. Data, confidence, and understanding will get you everywhere with any family, and this is a great reminder. And it is absolutely okay to cry.

The experiences have made me a better therapist and that’s all that matters at the end of the day.

Working in home care, as a CF, I have already experienced a couple of THOSE PARENTS. I take it all in strides and accept it as a learning opportunity. I remember at the end of the day, I have to square it away and take a few deep breaths. It all works out in the end!

Claiming I am too hard to get a hold of. After working in the schools for 18 years, it still bothers me when I get a complaint. It is hard not to take it personally.

While they don’t come along every year, each parent has the potential to be “that parent”, so we should always be prepared…just in case!
Excellent post!
