  Case: Should it be my concern?

I have a student that constantly comes to school upset in the mornings which affects his entire day. Not only is it affecting his performance in school but it is becoming a distraction to my other students. I have spoken with his parents on many occasions but they failed to assist me regarding his actions. Since the parents does not care, does that mean that I should?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would talk to the school counselor as well as the school social worker. It could be an issue that is occuring at home and that is why the parents are not supporting your efforts. I would definitely be concerned and get the counselor and school social worker involved as quickly as possible.

Comments: If I was in this situation, I would not us this solution. This solution approach seems a big aggressive, and not in need of a social worker.

Comments: Involving a social worker without speaking with an administrator or counselor first is extreme. I would start with the counselor and see what their opinion is.
