Teachers have had to adjust to class instruction being fully visible to parents at all times, and parents have had to shoulder more responsibility for the development of their children’s habits and behaviors, often while fulfilling their work responsibilities. As a result, parents and teachers have had to learn new ways to collaborate for the sake of the kids in their shared care.
“The quality of the parent-teacher relationship is really a pretty significant driver of some of the outcomes that we hope to see in children as they progress through school,” said Susan Sheridan, director of the Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families, and Schools at the University of Nebraska, adding that a strong parent-teacher relationship creates a sense of security and stability for the child.
