Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         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 can let the child know that his mom loves him so much and is working so hard for him to support him.                 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 Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This is true, she is.

The student needs to understand that everything that his mom does is for him because she wants him to have a better life. This should help to encourage him!
