  Case: Crying Teenager
Mr. Askew has a new student who was degraded to his class because her performance wasn't good in the class she was taking. Her mom has been very sick, which causes her to cry in the middle of the class or loose focus. Mr. Askew has talked to the school counselor and the department has talked to her, but the behavior seems to persist. He tries to be supportive but his options are running low.
What should Mr. Askew do in this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try to be supportive but at some point she has to gain control of her emotions. I would try to talk to her one on one.

Comments: I think it is a good idea for the teacher to talk to her one on one but learning to gain control of her emotions is a hard process and takes more than just talking to a teacher.

Comments: This solution is hurtful and unhelpful. It is not appropriate to say that a student should simply get over their emotions.
