I think that Carl's case is an excellent reminder to us to take into account what might be happening in our students lives outside of school. Many of our students will be coming from difficult home situations so they may be arriving at school with more urgent concerns than how to conjugate French verbs or how to pass a volleyball. If we keep this in mind we'll be able to do a better job teaching them and caring for them.
If I were faced with Carl's case, I would talk to the school counsellor to make sure that we went about things the right way to help Carl. I would not bring him home with me.
