As for my post, I can relate to OP's situation. Though it may have been on a much lower severity, it still started with a rift forming between the students and parents/teacher, and eventually escalated to full on verbal fights between myself (student), and a couple of "mentors".
In our situation, our mentors are really cool about everything, when they are right they dont gloat, when they are proven wrong they don't get mad and we (the students) dont gloat... I believe this is how a team should be. (note, i really dont like separating mentors and students like this, makes it seem like it is two sides of an argument ). The only problems I have ever seen are from SOME (not all) parents.... some of them just really can't accept that they might be wrong :\
