I am really at my wits end with one of our parents. I have no clue how to handle this.
I have been the president for the past 3 years and this year I decided to step down and take a break, but I stayed on as an alternate. We have this one parent who comes to every meeting with all these great ideas but she is just so pushy about it that it turns people off. (she doesnt see this though)
She is now an alternate officer too we just had our planning meeting last week. We set all our dates for our events, fundraisers, meetings, etc. Now she doesn't say anything at the meeting or ask questions how things are run Nothing. She sees one of the other fellow officers latter on tells them how we don't know what we are doing that I haven't been runing the PTO right etc. that I don't get feedback from parents, that I don't discuss things enough at the PTO meetings, that we should be voting on more things, all this stuff. And now the new president is doing it that way and she shouldn't be.
Now this isn't the first time she has done this. She is really causing a rift and hard feelings with the new officers because she keeps doing this.
Don't get me wrong she does have good ideas, but we can't do all of them, its the ways she approaches it, and she has never done PTO and doesn't understand all the ins and outs of our school yet.
First I don't think she realizes how much she has hurt my feelings and how hard I have worked these past few years. She didn't see what it was like before me her children are only in kdg.
Do I approach her just me or with the new president, do I say something to the principal that this needs to be worked out so this isn't a never ending issue. I am really at a standstill or do nothing at all.
Most of all I feel so badly for my girlfriend who has taken on the role of president and is having to deal with this.
