Problem:
Davy is frequently 10-15 minutes late and Dad had commented in passing that he really should get Davy to bed earlier. Davy says he doesn't eat breakfast and doesn't like to eat. Dad says he knows Davy doesn't like to eat in the morning and doesn't push him to. Davy does eat snack and seems to have much more energy after that.
Mom is Asian born in Korea and Dad is American Caucasian. Davy has two older brothers-14 and 16 years old. Davy does not speak about his brothers and it is reported in his records but not verified that his older brothers bully Davy. His records also show that the school was reluctant at least twice last year to release Davy to his father at the end of the day because his father came to pick him up with the strong smell of liquor on his breath. School ends at noon. There has been no indication of this problem this year.
Dad appears concerned about Davy and has showed concern about his slow academic progress but has made comments such as "well what can do I expect he doesn't want to know anything". Davy and his father are not very affectionate (Davy takes little notice of his Dad's departure) but Dad does not like to leave if Davy is upset with him.
