I agree 100% about not reporting it. In my study group, we analyzed this situation for a long time...finally determining that conflict to be...abortion topic. The interperer must remain impartial, even thou he/she does(nt) agree. If it hits the interpreter on a personal note and cannot remain impartial, then he/she needs to communicate this to all parties.

2nd scenerio when the teacher screams that the terp is giving the answers...
I would continue to interprete. Deaf participant would step in. When all is said and done, then meet with the teacher and clarify role.

3rd Coffee request...
Ya think...UGH, This has happened to me.
I would lie and say DD is closed, HAHAH, no kidding, I would clearly state that I was hired to stay here, Interpret for all. I would not get the coffee.
