Case: Clingy Student
Ms. Georgia has a 6th grade male student who is constantly clinging to her. He comes to her classroom between each class change, sits with her at football games, gives her cards, and has tried to add her on Facebook. Ms. Georgia knows that this student comes from a very unstable home where he does not receive much attention. However, Ms. Georgia also knows that she must maintain a strictly professional relationship with this student, and now allow him to believe that she is his "friend." How does Ms. Georgia let this student know that he can not be this "clingy" without hurting this students feelings or making him feel rejected?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Have a honest conversation with student and with the school counselor. Make sure to reiterate how fond you are of him but there has to be boundaries that both are comfortable with. |

Comments: I don't think it would be appropriate for the teacher to talk to the student about this manner by herself. She should call on the guidance counselor as a witness and for additional help. |

Comments: This would be perfect because it wouldn't make him feel unwanted or unloved like he may feel at home. It would establish the boundaries without tearing him down. |
