Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         Case: Inappropriate behaviors There is a student who is going around telling other students that I am his girlfriend. It makes me uncomfortable teaching him, what should I do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Hi uJuPyS, I agree with Cortnie's suggestions of talking to administration, making anecdotal notes of the incidences, and establishing a time where you can conference with the student. It is very important to document this type of thing so that, if something were to happen, you have yourself and your school protected. I also agree that when you conference with the student you need to have someone else present. You should not be by yourself with the student. Perhaps the student will understand the seriousness of the situation when he sees an administrator present. Another suggestion is perhaps you could teach a social/emotional lesson about why it is bad to spread untrue rumors about others.
