Teachers have the challenging task of balancing the educational journeys of dozens of students while also maintaining a peaceful and welcoming classroom environment.
Teachers not only deal with students but also their parents, and parent-teacher night can be the most overwhelming night of the year.
I want to know from the former and active teachers of the BuzzFeed Community: What is the most surprising thing that ever happened at parent-teacher night?
It could be something shocking that a parent said to you or their child. It may be something that made you say, "Well, that was horrible."
Maybe what transpired was a positive moment, an interaction that made you hopeful not only about the student, but about your entire purpose.
Or perhaps you have a story that haunts you to this day, but you find yourself telling all your closest friends in secret.
