Case: Too Much Time in the Bathroom
At the school that I am interning at there is a student in one of my classes who takes excessive amounts of time in the bathroom. Sometimes, it will take this student up to 20 minutes to use the bathroom right around the corner, and come back. We are not sure whether or not the student is actually using the bathroom or just saying that he is so he does not have to participate. My CT, her assistant and I are all women, so we are unable to go into the bathroom. What should we do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I will suggest telling the student that he/she has 3 minutes to go to the bathroom and be back. I will also address the situation with someone else to see suggestions and always recording when is that the student ask to go to the bathroom, during what specific lesson. I will also suggest sending the student to the bathroom and wait for him/her outside in the hall. |

Comments: making anecdotal records of when the behavior occurs is a great way to determine if there is an underlying reason as to why he leaves for so long. |

Comments: I think that three minutes is a little short for going to the restroom and would suggest a longer time |

Comments: I do not like this solution. I do not think that it is fair to give a child a time limit to use the restroom. I understand that it should not take someone an excessive amount of time to use the restroom, but you never know whether the student has n upset stomach or a underlying health issue. |

Comments: The student could have a medical reason. Therefore, a time limit would be improper. |

Comments: This does not take into account that maybe the student is having medical issues. Talking to parents first should be the first step then if determined that no other outside factor then implement a different monitoring task. |
