  Case: Uncooperative Parent
A student is consistently leaving the classroom without permission to go the bathroom. He warned not to do this and receives disciplinary marks. When the parent is connected about the issues the response is "He can leave class whenever he wants to and will not get into trouble at home for doing so." What is a possible solution for this problem?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Possible Solution: I would ask the parent for a meeting and have the principal sit in. In most cases the principal is going to side with the teacher and they can also make clear to the child and parent that their child is to follow the same rules as everyone else. The proceed to tell them that disciplinary action will be taken if this behavior doesn't change.
