A Misinterpreted Email
If a student is at risk of failing, teachers often reach out to parents in the hopes that they’ll get support. That doesn’t always happen. This teacher had a student who was at risk of failing if they dropped the ball before finals. They emailed the student’s parents to give them a heads-up.
Instead of the nudge the teacher was intending, the email was interpreted as a threat. The parents accused the teacher of threatening to fail him and ruin his football scholarship. The teacher had no intention of purposefully failing the kid. They wanted the exact opposite, which is why they reached out to the parents for support. Ah, the irony.
