  Case: Divorce
Child is acting out due to the recent divorce of his parents. He says he is a bad kid. What can I do to help him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I agree that reassurance that you do not think the child is a bad kid is important. However, I think the parents should be contacted immediately, the parents should be made aware of his internalization of blame in this scenario so that they can address these issues at home as well, as ultimately that is what is triggering this student. Additionally, I would try to provide him with some sort of activity that could serve as an outlet for his emotions, whether it be journaling, writing poetry, creating art, etc. Also, it could be beneficial to provide him with a quiet space in the classroom that he can go and calm down if he is feeling overwhelmed by his emotions as opposed to acting out in that moment.

Comments: Considering involving the parents is another great way to approach this! It is a tightrope walk though, ensuring that you are not contacting someone who has recently lost custody or etc.
