He has no interest in doing the work and has no issues telling the teachers that he is not going to do the assignment. He is not really a behavior problem. Dad is aware that he is on track to fail, again. His response was to the tune of, I guess he will be in 7th grade again. This boy will be 16 in a grade with 12 year old classmates. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) This is very sad, truthfully a failure of our system. As a teacher get as many people involved as possible, counseling, specialists, proior teachers. His self esteem must be low . He needs a lot from you and others                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: This doesn't provide an answer at all and sounds like giving up.
