I had to talk to a parent today.
Eu tive que conversar com um pai hoje.
It was about their child's school progress.
Era sobre o progresso do filho na escola.
I prepared carefully for the meeting.
Preparei-me cuidadosamente para a reunião.
I wanted to share both the good and the tricky.
Eu queria compartilhar o bom e o difícil.
I started by listing positive things.
Comecei listando coisas positivas.
Then, I explained some behavior problems.
Depois, expliquei alguns problemas de comportamento.
I suggested that at home, it might help to read more.
Sugeri que em casa, talvez ajude ler mais.
I told her, "We are on the same team here."
Eu disse a ela: "Estamos no mesmo time aqui."
She seemed to appreciate my honest words.
Ela pareceu apreciar minhas palavras sinceras.
I felt good about our conversation.
Senti-me bem com nossa conversa.
It truly felt like a helpful discussion.
Realmente pareceu uma discussão útil.
