  Case: I couldn't help it!
I'm a teacher that loves to get personable with her students. I show them that I care about them outside of my classroom. One night, I was supporting my students at a basketball game and one of my students needed a ride home from the game. She attempted to call her grandparents, parents, but no one answered. It was very dark outside. I decided to give her a ride. Is this against the code of ethics?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would have done the same thing. I like it would have been an issue if you would have left her there. Now, if it would have been a male student, I'm not sure if I would have taken the student home. I would not feel comfortable. As a way to cover yourself, I would let your administration know in an email. Did you speak to the parent when you dropped off the student?

The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No
The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes
The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No
The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No
The suggested solution is original No
Comments: I believe that this solution does not solve the problem and would not make sense to leave a male student behind. I think that if a child needs help and there is always a solution that you, as a teacher, can come up with with the help from an administrator.
