  Case: How do you tell a parent his or her child has an odor?
I have a student who constantly comes to school smelly. The odor is that of urine. I have notified the counselor who plans on talking with the child. Should I discuss this odor issue with the parents or let it ride to see if the problem continues? If it does, what should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think you should have a note sent home to every students. This note being a happy "Yay your child is growing up! Let's all wear deodorant". Something happy and upbeat to remind the parents that they should have their children take proper precaution when it comes to their hygiene.
