Book Description
Transform teacher-parent relationships into a strategy for children's success! While most parents strive to support their children with the best parenting practices, both teachers and parents often find themselves struggling to reconcile conflicts that can result in hostility, defensiveness, and communication breakdowns. In addition, negative public constructions of parents perpetuate this dilemma, particularly for those parents who are already marginalized through poverty or language barriers. Working from research in three key areas-parent development and skills, social and historical family influences, and parent-school relationships-educator (and parent) Gwen L. Rudney offers teachers: Useful interpretations of parent beliefs and actions Compelling insight into what parents expect from teachers Key ideas that characterize the struggles that parents face while raising children Practical strategies designed to lead to community, trust-building, collaboration, gratitude, and friendship with parents Straightforward chapters offer teachers everything from theory to commonsense strategies for working with parents to improve life and learning for all children.

Book Description
"The Reardons are a typical American family whose eccentricities, if hilarious, are only normal. Laura, the mother, is a social climber. The youngest, Penelope, is a demon with a slingshot and the piano. Harry, the son, is positive he is the second coming of Shakespeare. Reginald, the father, would rather tinker with the automobile than ticker tape; and Nana, the wisecracking grandmother, is only concerned with Bing Crosby records."--Publisher website.
