  Case: Inappropriate Material
Jon is a great student in seventh grade who does all of his work and gets good grades. One day during silent reading you find that he is reading a book that contains inappropriate content. You ask him to put away his book and choose another from the classroom book shelf. He does as he is asked but you get a call from him mother a few days later regarding the fact that you had her son stop reading the book the was interested in during class. How should you respond to Jon's mother and is this a problem of ethics?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would discuss with the parent why you felt that book was inappropriate for school.The parent might be unaware of exactly what type of book her child is reading. I would give suggestions for books that are similar in topic but are more appropriate.
