That student I had issue with parent, we learned by certain interference, is doing it on purpose. She is a normal little girl, nothing else, as such she's showing her true colors to me.
Yesterday, she was whining that her head hurts, with her gaggle of friends, giggling. And I can tell she's okay, she's playing around, but she would keep on it and she even said, "I'll tell my mom on you, she'll get mad!" I just retorted back, "It's okay, I'll let her know too." I documented the exchange and she's still doing this defiance.
She's having issues with the PE teachers and we have told her to move and sit outside or inside in the cafeteria, but she refuses to and knows she'll get hit.
She keeps using me as a way to get out of class and I'm getting tired of it.
What can we do about this? I don't want to keep bothering the family or getting others involved but this is ridiculous!
And I'll repeat myself: She understands the consequences and understands things like anyone else. She just plain refuses to do what we ask.
I forgot to add she's also autism but we believe she may be High functioning. So that's also something I don't know how to handle.
If you read my older post here's the gist:
-No paperwork since last year
-Mother keeps bringing the same type of paperwork for temporary time period, but nothing like a plan or anything for the whole year.
-Mother refuses to bring any paperwork for tumor.
-Refuses to get me ROI for doctor
-Mother is trying to find something wrong with our school (Ie, trying to blame us for physical abuse.)
-Mother not understanding anything after explaining her so many times (If we want to put Medical in her IEP, we need said paperwork)
-We already called Social Services, the doctor's did their own social worker, and they did their job but now it's all up to mother to do the end of the bargain.
This last month has been a bit stinker, and it's harder when we have to deal with this too. We already went through the right procedures but we haven't received anything. I'm just doing my job, but I feel bad that this child is going through all this and nothing is being changed or fixed, because we can't and mother won't help us.
Wow. OK, I remember reading that story. Hugs to you!!

I also was going to suggest it may be time to get CPS involved. If the child has a medical issue, she needs treatment and follow up. If she doesn't, she needs intervention. Her behavior seems to be the manifestation of other types of chaos in her life. Assess, treat as required, return to class and document.
