  Case: No Friends
Mary was experiencing behavior and learning problems at school. She refused to do written work, she was stubborn and her teacher found her difficult to work with. Her mother was extremely worried. She also reported that her daughter was experiencing social problems and often complained that she didn’t have any friends.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would suggest that the teacher attempt mild redirection before any other steps are taken. Perhaps having group work where the students are assigned groups so that she is forced into a situation where she might talk with other students.
If the mild-moderate interventions do not work, refer the student to the school counselor or psychologist to discern the root issue. Once it is found, discuss the issue with the parent and attempt to find a multilateral solution.

Comments: I would try to keep any counselors out of this scenario. Having the students work in groups or pairs can help them interact with others without getting anyone outside the class involved. Grading of the group projects is determined by all of their participation.
