Case: Am I a Boy or Girl?
We have student who is a girl. She dresses out in the girls locker and by every document she is classified as a female. Recently, she dropped the "f" bomb in class and I spoke with her about this behavior and how it is unacceptable and offensive. I told her that it sounds so trashy coming from a young lady's mouth. Her response to me was, "I am not a girl." A few days later, she turned in an excuse and where her mother had written "her" or "she", she crossed out and put "him" or "he". What are some suggestions on how to handle this? Because it is clear that her parents are unaware of this situation.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a teacher, I would not address this with the student unless I have a rapport with the student. Even at the establishment of a teacher-student relationship, I would include the counselor at the school. It would not be something I would personally call the parents and disclose due to the sensitive nature of the issue. Before meeting with the student, I would let the counselor know the situation and ask if you could be included in the meeting because of course you are concerned as to what is going on and why this young lady is behaving as such. |
