  Case: Just trying to Help
A student in class has a odor condition, and I tried to help the child from being picked on by others in the class so I sent home a little deodorant with the child. I received a note back from the parents with a very rude remark, \"(Blank student) has a mother and does not need another.\" Now, uncomfortably, I do not know what to do.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I understand you were just trying to help but it is easy to see how the parent could have taken that the wrong way. Allowing the child to keep the deodorant at school will avoid that problem.

Comments: Yes they should be left at school, but it would be better to give every student one so they aren't being singled out.
