  Case: ESE Student Romantic Relationships
I have observed a high school ESE classroom in which multiple girls claim to be with the same boy. All of the girls surround this boy and will sometimes fight with each other over this one boy. These romantic relationships and conflicts are keeping them off task and distracting other students during group/independent work. How can the teacher address this issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would speak with the students involved indidvidually and express that it is o.k. to socialize during appropriate times, but that peers must not distract us from school work. I would notify the parents of the situation going on so that they can work with their child on appropriate behaviors at school and appropriate times to socialize. I would also ensure that the student desks are arranged in a way that the girls are not near each other, and everybody is well spaced out from one-another.

Comments: I really thought this was a respectful and appropriate way to handle the situation. It allows you not to make the kids uncomfortable, also this is improved by informing the parents so they can further help their children understand social norms.

Comments: This is a good solution to this situation. Talking to the students first is a great place to start, to allow them to correct the behavior. And having the assistance to fix this problem at home with the parents is a good idea.
