  Case: Dirty kid
I am a substitute teacher that often does long-term assignments. There is a 4th grade student that always comes to class very tired, in dirty clothes, and often smells bad. To add insult to injury, I've seen his mother and she is very well kept, dressed with all the "bling accessories," her nails done, hair done, etc. I can't understand how a mother can take such great care for herself, and leave the child a filthy mess.
How should this be addressed and handled properly?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would bring it up to admin and the counselor.

The suggested solution is original Yes
Comments: By talking to the counselor the teacher may find out that the counselor was already aware of the fact. Maybe the parent has already spoken to the counselor.
