Case: Mom is too busy
In my Kindergarten classroom I have a repeating student. This year his mom is a single parent. He is one of 3 children in the home. His mom works 2 jobs to be the sole supporter for the family. She us unable to attend most functions at school such as class parties and award ceremonies. My student gets very sad when other parents are there and his mom is not. As a result he shuts down. He won't do his work, he acts out, and he cries. His mother is aware of the issue but is not in a position to make changes to her work schedule. How can we help this child not feel let down and insignificant?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You could offer to videotape award ceremonies and send them home with the student. It is hard for a child to feel alone. AT this age they may not understand the circumstances. Another option could be to allow his siblings, if they are in the same school, to attend the functions with the student. This situation occurs often and solutions may be difficult to find. |

| Comments: I think the video tape is a great idea, but probably trying to incorporate another relative or even a parent volunteer would be a great idea as well. |

| Comments: I think this is a fabulous idea. While she might not be there in the moment, they could still have the opportunity to share the experience. If he knows ahead of time that the performance/ceremony is being videotaped for his mom to watch later, he will most likely rise to the occasion and be more enthusiastic, "warming to the camera." |
