[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 171940, member: 1436"] Sue, I don't know what I would do. I have spoken to mothers about difficult child before, and it usually made no difference. He was not the same person in front of other parents. They saw him as nice and polite. Last year one of my freshmen girls started hanging out with a local difficult child. He was 18 and waiting trial for robbery and beating an elderly man. I told her that I would call her parents (I taught both of them) if I saw her with him again. Someone told him, he told his mother, she called the school, and I got called to the Principal's office. He lectured me about getting involved and "telling the young man's business." He said, "How would you feel if someone did that to your son?" I told him frankly that I would tell them myself. He knows that I would, too. So, I would probably call the mother. Just so my conscience would be clear. [/QUOTE]
