Her mom has been very sick, which causes her to cry in the middle of the class or loose focus. Mr. Askew has talked to the school counselor and the department has talked to her, but the behavior seems to persist. He tries to be supportive but his options are running low. What should Mr. Askew do in this situation? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would speak with her privately to talk about the issue at hand and let her know that she has my support. I would also talk with the guidance counselor to come up with some ways that we could help her to live a more positive lifestyle. I would tell her to channel her energy into a hobby like journaling or exercising
