  Case: Parents dont care
I have a student that will get his letter moved down for being disruptive and he will say I don't care my parents still let me do whatever I want. I have contacted the parents with no response. I spend most of the class redirecting him. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Have you considered using incentive rather than negative reinforcement or punishment? Perhaps he doesn't respond with desired behavior in response to threatening his grade because he nor his parents care about his grade. Maybe introduce something that he does like or care about, to encourage the proper behavior. This is something I tested in an ABA case study.

Comments: Wonderful solution. Students tend to behave better when there is a positive outcome. This tool would be great to use in a class room to try and redirect behavior positively.

Comments: This could be very helpful. There are always things kids like that can be used as leverage to get them to do better. Positive reinforcement can be a good thing sometimes when you have a child like this who isn't effected as badly by negative. Maybe they see to much negativity at home. Taking away good things from them might be a good idea.

Comments: I agree with this solution. Children tend to respond well to positive reinforcements for good behavior. If his parents truly do not care, maybe positive reinforcements from you, his teacher, will help to motivate him.
