Elementary New Teachers: Let's help each other out!

One of our fellow M&Ms put this question in the box at our last Elementary Teacher's Mentor and Mentee meeting. Honestly, I forgot to check the box for questions until everyone had left. My apologies. The question is an important one and I would like to hear from mentors and mentees on this topic. Does anyone have advice on this one:

"What is the best course of action if a parent doesn't believe the teacher is speaking the truth about his/her child-in terms of social, academic, or emotional performance?"
