  Case: Pants Hang Low
I am in a classroom now and we are having an issue with one of our students not wearing pants that fit. His pants are to large and he has to walk around holding up his pants. His teacher has asked him where his belt is and he says that he left it at home or he can not find it. We have sent him to the office to see what they can do and they say that his mother says that she will handle it. Students are now beginning to make fun and I am not sure what to do at this point?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that you should talk to the parents again, just to reinforce that there is an issue. If this does not fix the problem, talk with the social worker for the school and see if there is a reason they are not able to provide the belt for the child. In the mean time, see if you can provide one for the student so that the other students do not continue to make fun of him.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do exactly this. I think speaking with the social worker is a great idea, as it sounds as if it may be a financial problem. However, you don't want to just assume and say something to the student and insult him. So since the parents have already been contacted and the problem has not been solved, I think speaking to the social worker is the next step that should be taken.
