Serious!! My student......
-
A man sat in a tavern with a lovely Toronto lass
And stared when more than nineteen times she raised and drained her glass.
He said "You've outdrunk four strong men, and half the bar, my dear."
But the maiden smiled demurely and said she was an Engineer. -
Raven, ahve you been smoking pot again?

wah..such a concerned teacher...I want to be in your class
Just say"I noticed your not being yourself these days. If you have anything you want to get off your chest/tak about, dont hesitate to come to me ok? Its will stay between just the two of us"
or something like that...earn her trust 1st, then get her to confide in u, then u can help her by being in a supporting role. Thats what teachers are..facillitators. -
i bet ur feeling queer for not being urself huh? Tell u what, just show some skin to ease ur conscience.Originally posted by charlize:Tell her to go see a counsellor.
If she does not want to do that, then the next best thing to do is to get some of her friends to observe her and help her out as and when she needs it.
Anything serious which they can't handle, tell them to report back to you.
Fuck, I can't believe I am giving people advice.

This kinda case is very typical among teens nowadays. There are people who are even proud of doing it, i.e they showed pics of their cut wrists, some even made a video out of the process. I am not lying, cos I have seen it before.
Last time there was a guy in my high school, he broke the windowpane in the classroom and use the shards of glass to cut himself afterwards. All because his girl threatened to break up with him...
All I can say is, these people need some serious professional help. The best thing you can do is to talk to her and advise her to get some counselling... -
i don't understand why anyone would want to cut themselves.. really, it's just psycho... persinally, i do not think much of having my skin raptured and my blood not inside the vessels like where they're supposed to be...

People cut themselves to release the frustrations within. The thought of seeing your own blood flowing out has a "sick" therapetic effect on your mindset.Originally posted by starblue:i don't understand why anyone would want to cut themselves.. really, it's just psycho... persinally, i do not think much of having my skin raptured and my blood not inside the vessels like where they're supposed to be...
Knew someone like that during JC time, always having small cuts but she seemed to be numbed to it. All of us were worried about her but she refused to let anyone into her problems..... -
I have been doing that lately.Originally posted by alexkusu:i bet ur feeling queer for not being urself huh? Tell u what, just show some skin to ease ur conscience.
Too bad you're not around to see it.
Blood loss from your nose donated to the Red Cross should be sufficient to save a few lives. -
It's the same thing as piercing your ears.Originally posted by starblue:i don't understand why anyone would want to cut themselves.. really, it's just psycho... persinally, i do not think much of having my skin raptured and my blood not inside the vessels like where they're supposed to be...
I don't see people complaining about that. -
Smoking pot seems more legitimate than you standing around a pot chanting nonsense and trying to conjure up some "make Ginny like me" spells.Originally posted by iveco:Raven, ahve you been smoking pot again? -
i think this would be the best thing to do....cos in the first place you are not supposed to know about it....so best just leave a word that she can always go to you if she decide to...and i like this part "Its will stay between just the two of us" hopefully she trust the words.....Originally posted by alexkusu:wah..such a concerned teacher...I want to be in your class

heard about such things 'cutting themselves' sometimes back....i still cannot understand how they can bring themselves to do that....ouch!
the kids of this era are under too much stress i guess....poor them....frankly they are too young to go into BGR...emotionally they are not that strong to handle prob. (IMO lah) sigh...
still rem the case about the boy who jumped from the school when the teacher inform that the parents would be called for on his BGR issue...he couldn't handle the fear of figuring watever the reaction the parents would hv, and decide to escape with death...sad sad..... -
Hmm dont think normal teachers can handle this effectively.. the best they can do is console the student and lend a hearing ear.. but since the student doesnt trust her to tell her about it then theres no point..
Best to seek the advice of a counsellor -
possessive guys that get unhappy when their girlfriends talk or go out with other guys suck. and if the guy loves he he will trust her and only think the best of her. he blame it on her talking to other guy thats just an excuse or hes a pathetic insecure possessive person

mayb should just present a case study to her (eg the one where the boy jumped coz of bgr) and ask her to talk thru' wat went wrong and wat is the best way to work it out?!Originally posted by a_splash:i think this would be the best thing to do....cos in the first place you are not supposed to know about it....so best just leave a word that she can always go to you if she decide to...and i like this part "Its will stay between just the two of us" hopefully she trust the words.....

Maybe can tell her how ugly she will look with all the scars from the cuts she has on her body. I think the most important thing first is to stop her from cutting otherwise if she kept on cutting she might cut a artery and lose a lot of blood.
Just convince her to stop cutting first that's the main thing, her other problems can be solved later -
Oh, my poor innocent, untainted eyes didnt have the pleasure of such sight. My lost~Originally posted by charlize:I have been doing that lately.

hmm.. self slasher.. well.. the only way is to talk to her and refer her to a psychiatrist.. it would be better to talk to her before you talk to her parents..
-
oh? its the same like saying "HEI I KNOW WHAT UR DOIN....n telling her how the boy suicided."Originally posted by eyeceyes:mayb should just present a case study to her (eg the one where the boy jumped coz of bgr) and ask her to talk thru' wat went wrong and wat is the best way to work it out?! -
i had a talk with her yesterday so now she knows i know she's cutting herself.. but she kept avoiding the topic. and being clumsy with words, i didn't know how to talk to her abut the stuation, much less help much.. i'va asked her to write me letters in school, like how we dd last year when i was in the school... i only hope she can tell me stuff in the letters...

why dont you call SOS for an opinion instead of taking matters into your own hands? even though you are a teacher you arent that much older than your student.
-
Considering that you're ending this relief teaching a few days later, this is not a good option.....
Better bring her to a counsellor and let them handle it. This is how things goes.... -
she violently objects to the idea of a counsellor.... she doesn't even want to go to teachers much less a counsellor.... liddat how?

Maybe can ask her is she wants to speak to the counsellor over phone not face to face oneOriginally posted by starblue:she violently objects to the idea of a counsellor.... she doesn't even want to go to teachers much less a counsellor.... liddat how?
