Prompt:
In this coursework assignment you will read web articles and answer a few questions.
Step #1: Read the article titled “Teacher says parent beat her up for reporting child neglect” by Lia Eustachewich and Priscilla DeGregory
The link to the article is located here: https://nypost(dot)com/2016/11/22/teacher-says-parent-beat-her-up-for-reporting-child-neglect/
Scenario: Even though a CPS caseworker is mandated by law not to reveal the name of the referral source, the parent often suspects the source of the report occasionally, and an angry parent will come to the program or the family child care home demanding to know why someone is "telling me how to raise my children."
Question #1: Now after reading the article and the scenario above imagine yourself as an early childhood teacher… how would you deal with such a situation at an early head start center for children? For example, discuss a professional’s duty as an early head start teacher to report as mandatory reporters and the risks present.
