Dealing with difficult parents

It is too easy for us to let issues with parents zap us of our energy. Strangely, it only takes one parent to cause us endless stress and lack of sleep.

Sometimes we need to remind ourselves that we cannot please everyone all of the time.

Instruction in today’s educational system is typically delivered in days filled with multiple things to do and just not enough time in which to do them – with people often feeling very under-appreciated. Because of these challenges, we are frequently forced to take a reactive approach to instruction, rather than a proactive one, often not even knowing what the other person is doing due to decreased collaboration time.
