Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         Case: Death of a Student's Parent A student of mine just lost their father suddenly. They are typically very well-behaved and eager to learn. Since the passing, this student has had many outburst and is defiant. I feel bad punishing this student because I don't want to cause them any more distress. I can't continue to have this student misbehave, but I also don't want to hurt their feelings. This is a new situation for me and any help would be appreciated. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) As somebody who went through this, giving the student support and treating them more gently was the best solution for me. This is an enormous life changing and traumatizing experience. School should not add more stress.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Agreed, however the behavior does need to stop as it could get out of hand.
