  Case: I hate this school...
There is a student in your class that has an issue with just about everyone. Every time they get into trouble it is their own fault, but they always claim that everyone is picking on them. Each time they are reprimanded they state that they hate the school, and class, and students, etc. in a very disruptive manner. What could you do for the student so that they do not act out in such a way? How would you get to the bottom of their behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It might be helpful to involve a counselor, to see if they can get the student to open up as to why they might be acting out. I'd also suggest meeting one-on-one with the student and creating a behavior contract with them.

Comments: Generally, when students behave in such a manner, there is some underlying issue. Some students respond well to one-on-one conversations. Others really want help with issues; they just do not know how to ask or do not want to be transparent for various reason. At any rate, the protocol is to refer the student to the counselor to discuss their thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, behavior contracts often work for some of our students.
