  Case: Clingy Student
Ms. Georgia has a 6th grade male student who is constantly clinging to her. He comes to her classroom between each class change, sits with her at football games, gives her cards, and has tried to add her on Facebook. Ms. Georgia knows that this student comes from a very unstable home where he does not receive much attention. However, Ms. Georgia also knows that she must maintain a strictly professional relationship with this student, and now allow him to believe that she is his "friend." How does Ms. Georgia let this student know that he can not be this "clingy" without hurting this students feelings or making him feel rejected?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try and get the student into a club or school activity that he can thrive in. This way he would put more attention to the activities than Ms. Georgia. This would also lift up the students spirits.
