School is really just a baysitter for most parents, as parents have essentially taken the power away from teachers as their little child is never in the wrong. Shouldn't be lumping all parents into this but like anything, "it only takes a few.... blah blah blah... bad name". I would never have a treated a person like this and never will, unless it's someone from "the microsoft technical department" calling again.
For what ever reason todays prents don't think their kids should be scared of them. As a kid I was not sacred of mine untill I was being a little jerk, then I was scared as hell when they got mad at me. I'm nearly 34 and to this day when my Dad yells, my knees start knocking.
