Meanwhile, if you get a call from a parent who is angry about your childs bullying, listen without getting defensive. Thats what Laura McHugh of Castro Valley, California, did when a caller told her that her then 13-year-old son had spit in another boys food. Her son had confessed, but the victims mom wanted to make sure my son hadnt given her son a nasty disease, says McHugh, who apologized and promised to get her son tested for AIDS and other diseases. She knew the chance of contracting any disease this way was remote, but her promise calmed the mother and showed McHughs son that his bad behaviour was being taken seriously. McHugh, founder of Parents Coach Kids, a group that teaches parenting skills, sent the mom the test results. All were negative.
Remember: once you make a call, you might not like what you hear. If you have an itchy dialing finger, resist temptation. Put it in your pocket.
