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!) You could try and give a five minute limit on time in the bathroom. Obviously some students may need more time in the bathroom but this should not take 20 minutes unless notarized. Try seeking if he has any medical issues in which he takes longer in the restroom, otherwise check up on him to see if he is simply wasting time.
