I don’t intervene if a child is being disrespectful to his/her parent. What I will do is correct a child who is breaking a classroom rule like climbing on the tables or throwing toys even if mommy or daddy is present. If Johnny wants to sass his mommy that is her job as a parent to put a stop to the behavior. If Johnny is doing something where he might get hurt or hurt another child it is my job as a teacher to keep my students safe.
