Our kids toddle off to school everyday and we as parents have made sure that they are in a safe environment, when out of our care. The thing is though are we absolutely sure they are in the right psychological environment during their school hours? Or could they be dealing with anger problems in the classroom that we may not be aware of?
Many parents are now educating themselves on the issues with school bullying, but that is the not the focus of this article. Here I am referring to potential anger management issues that the teachers may be having, and our children could be the unsuspected victims.
Teachers are human and they are not exempt from anger management problems. The concern is however, in the younger grade classrooms the children could be exposed to this, and as parents being unaware of this potential problem are not recognizing it.
Yes its true at some point in time we have all heard our children complain that their teacher is picking on them. Or they feel their teacher doesn't like them. We all remember going through that in our school years. Most often its because the teacher has been enforcing the school rules. There are cases though where it goes beyond that, and as parents we need to recognize this.
Just imagine how we as adults would feel every morning when we got up that we knew we were going to be subjected to an angry person every day? If your child is dealing with a teacher that has an anger management problem, then that is what they are facing five days a week.
There are signs that this could be happening. It is up to you as a parent to listen carefully to what your youngsters are saying, and not just write off their grumblings and complaints as being nothing. At least if you look into the complaints a little closer you will know that there is nothing serious going on in respect to your youngster being in an unhealthy atmosphere.
The first thing you will need to do is educate yourself with the warning signals of anger management problems. If you learn the basics then there are specific questions that you can ask your youngster, and you will know from the answers that you receive whether you need to investigate further.
If you become aware that there may be an anger management problem with the teacher, then there are some techniques that you can put in place to help you determine this further. If upon doing so you discover that your concerns are valid, then you will be able to take some appropriate steps to prevent your child from being exposed to this type of angry behavior.
