National feature

Parents Behaving Badly

Nancy Gibbs' national cover essay on the parent–teacher relationship — interviews Dr. Jaber-Ansari, then teaching 6th grade at Hale Middle School in Woodland Hills, on the pressures reshaping the American classroom.

"A lot of teachers are very fearful and don't want to deal with it. Everything must be documented."
"If you become angry and let it get to you, you will quit your job. You will hate what you do and hate the kids."
