Krissy then"started to tear up and plead with me. I told her if she is really having these serious issues so frequently, we can have her parents come in for a meeting to figure out what we can do."

The teacher updated the post on Tuesday, saying the Reddit commenters had helped convince them to call Krissy's mom and ask about the explanations the girl had given for her late work. Halseydota asked:"INFO. Why are you convinced these are 'excuses' rather than a legitimately tough personal life? Has she been proven to be a liar before?"Jmh1881 thought:"Yes, but calling parents isn't the best solution. It's very possible she could be getting abused."Curiousarcher commented:"Yes but the Lying could be because of untreated anxiety."

Others weren't convinced by the stories. MacAttacknChz thought:"If it was just that excuse several times over, I'd agree. But 'my friend's grandma passed away and I can't do any work all week' is stretching it. She needs to learn that she still has responsibilities."
