THE DILEMMA
Four-year-old Victor enjoys playing dress up in the dramatic play area. He is a quiet and reserved child who usually follows other children's lead. But when engaging in dramatic play, Victor's leadership shines as he collaboratively creates scenarios with his classmates. He is particularly adept at playing characters such as firemen, princesses, bumblebees, and moms. One day, Mr. Jackson, Victor's father, who rarely comes to the center, arrives to pick up Victor and sees that he is in a pink princess costume. He curtly tells Marge, Victor's teacher, that he does not want her to allow Victor to play in the dress-up area in the future. He then orders Victor to change, and they quickly leave.
Marge is taken aback by Mr. Jackson's behavior.
The center is devoted to fostering relationships with all of its families, and Marge has recently made great strides in attracting Victor's family to potlucks and school workdays. The staff collectively believe that in addition to building children's imaginations, dramatic play enhances their social and communication skills and is an integral part of the learning process that gives children opportunities to develop abstract thinking, literacy, math, and social studies skills.What should Marge, the ethical teacher, do?
