  7. The Manipulative Student:Recommended Response(adapted from Jack Klott, MSSA) • Don’t give attention; ignore as much as possible. • Say and repeat: “I need for you to calm down.” • If s/he continues to escalate, threaten to call police or security. • Ask them to come back when they are able to talk about the situation more calmly. • When they come back calmly, give undivided attention. This teaches that appropriate behavior lead to appropriate results.
