  Case: Not showing up for school
I have these two girls that are siblings who do not come to school often. Their mother and father keep saying they have car issues. They come 3 days out of the 5 that they are suppose too. They are behind in their reading and math levels. I also notice that the two girls do not have good hygiene. I want to help, but I don't know how too. What do you think?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This should definitely be reported to your school's social worker. This seems like a form of neglect in my opinion, but missing school frequently should be reported to the social worker. It is his or her job to contact the parents to hopefully resolve the issue. In Georgia, there are legal consequences to a child missing school and it all falls on the parents.
