Case: I Don't Fit In
I have a Hispanic student in my class who struggles to get along with other students. He is constantly getting into arguments with other students and always thinks that everyone is against him. I have spoken to him about this, but the problems still continue. I'm not sure if his difficulties come from cultural differences or if he really does not get along with others. At times I think he gets defensive because he doesn't understand what is going on. How do I handle this problem?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In so many cases, inferiority is taught at home. And getting into arguments with others is a defense mechanism that turns on a child's motivation to prove himself. In my experience, it has been very beneficial to bring in a counselor to speak to the family about how to promote a better working relationship with the student. It may be that the child just feels so inferior because the parents, NOT you, have pre-judged the school as a community that may not accept him. So it makes sense that the child is trying to bring attention to himself and validate his family's outlook. Insisting and teaching equality, and practicing what you preach, will go far. I try to just always be loving and kind to these students. Life is hard enough. |
