parent teacher conferences

I feel that parent teacher conferences went well.  It was fairly simple to prepare for.  The first conference went very smoothly and I was able to get all of my information across.  The "difficult" conference was obviously not as easy.  Her position was to be late for work and in a hurry.  It was annoying to deal with.  I was constantly interrupted and it seemed like a parent that did that would not even get all the information I had available.  If an actual parent did that, it would be difficult to completely keep my composure.  I don't think it's much to ask for a parent to take half an hour to discuss their child.
