  Case: It Must be Opposite Day
I have a student in my classroom who does the complete opposite of everything I say. He seems genuinely remorseful when he realizes his bad choice, but he continues to do this. If I tell him to walk, he runs; if I tell him hands down, he touches; If I tell him to sit, he stands. It's very frustrating and other students are beginning to copy him. What should I do to get him to follow instructions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would suggest a meeting with the parents.

Comments: This is not what I would do in this situation. I don't like this suggestion because it doesn't give any suggestions to try before having a meeting with the parents.
