We spoke about this in class last week and it came up today at work, Facebook, teachers & parents. What does a teacher do when invited to befriend a parent? Those that have accepted are really caught, what happens when they blog about not really being sick the day they call in sick?
If you ignore a request by a parent will that parent feel bad? How will that be conveyed to the child at home. Your student who probably knows you didn't befriend their Mom? Or are parents keeping that to themselves? It's very hard to figure this out anyone have some ideas?
I need to present something to our after school staff (college students from GMU) about how they should respond to a parent request to friend them on Facebook or Myspace? My first inclination is to say ignore the request but I'm not sure that is correct. Maybe create other pages just for parents and students to see?
