From the Table 4.1, it could be seen that clowning, playing, and having disruptive conversation were the misbehaviors that had the most responses from the
students. This was validated by the observations. It could also be seen that rudeness was the lowest misbehavior.
3. Teachers’ Perspective
In this part, the researcher discusses the teachers’ perspective. The researcher provides their opinions about the aggression cases by the parents, their
ways in building the relationship between themselves, the students, and the parents, and their classroom management strategies. Those opinions are taken from the
interview that was done with the three teachers.
a. Opinions about the Physical Aggression Cases
All of the interviewees had heard about the physical aggression cases, especially in the cases between parents and teachers. Their opinions were slightly
different from each other, but the point was the same. From the first interview, the teacher said that what the parents did was not right, not ethical, and it was included
in criminality. Furthermore, the interviewee thought that parents who attacked a teacher seemed to be uncooperative with the school. On one hand, the parents
wanted their children to be educated, but on the other hand, they did not allow the teacher to do so.
…In my opinion it is very wrong, unethical, and it already belongs to criminality…Parents who did that, means that those parents were not
cooperative with the school…They entrusted their children to be educated but when the teacher tried to educate, the parents did not permit it, instead
they reacted like that… Interview 1 …Menurut pendapat saya itu sangat tidak benar, tidak etis, dan sudah
masuk ranah kriminal …Orang tua melakukan itu, berarti orang tua itu tidak

kooperatif dengan sekolah …Mempercayakan anaknya untuk dididik, giliran
dididik, kok tidak diijinkan, malah bereaksi yang seperti itu … Wawancara
1 The second teacher shared a similar opinion like the first teacher. It was not
right for the parents to aggress the teacher physically without any prior conversation with the school. According to the second interviewee, there should had been some
communication between the teacher and the parents so that the teaching and learning processes could be effective. It would also prevent the miscommunication
and the physical aggression. In my opinion, it was not wise for a parent to beat the teacher directly
without communication. There should be a communication between the school and parents… Interview 2
Kalau menurut saya, alangkah tidak bijaksananya ketika seorang orang tua langsung melakukan pemukulan tanpa ada komunikasi. Mestinya dari pihak
sekolah maupun pihak orang tua ada komunikasi
… Wawancara 2 The third teacher had different point of view. The teacher said that it was a
reasonable nature of a human. If the case was turned around – the teacher was the
parent – the teacher would do the same to protect the children. Therefore, the
teacher’s attitude towards the students must be acknowledged as the students were not only just a student, they were also the teacher’s children. Here, the teacher
emphasized on the importance of the communication between teachers, parents, and students.
…The first thing is that it is a human nature…So what we should address when dealing with something like that, our attitude to our children, which
are not just our student, but also as our own children. We must control our attitude with our students so that what the students receive is good and also
the parents… Interview 3 …Yang jelas yang pertama, itu memang sifat wajar manusiawi...Maka yang
harus kita perhatikan saat menghadapi hal seperti itu, sikap kita terhadap
34
anak kita, yang bukan hanya sebagai anak didik kita, tapi juga langsung sebagai anak-anak kita. Kita harus kontrol sikap kita pada anak-anak kita
sehingga apa yang diterim a anak baik dan diterima orang tua baik…
Wawancara 3 All of them agreed that the aggression cases were not worrying for them in
doing their teaching. The second teacher gave a further view that as long as the teacher stayed on the right track, the teacher should not be afraid. The second
teacher emphasized that the teacher must be responsible in educating the students. Personally, I do not feel worry as long as I stay on the right track. It means
that how I guide the children in the class because I will be responsible to the parents too… Interview 2
Saya pribadi tidak merasa khawatir sejauh saya berjalan pada rel yang sebenarnya. Artinya, bagaimana saya mendampingi anak-anak di kelas
karena memang pertan
ggungjawabannya pada orang tua… Wawancara 2
