is yours. If you think that they should get a 2nd chance then give it to them but make sure they understand that you will average the two grades. If you do this you should also mark it as a retake and get the parents to sign them.
If it were me, I wouldn't give a retake. If they had the same opportunities and stuff and they don't have any type of learning disability then they get what they get. I say this because your other kids could see this as, why did I study and work hard if we could have a 2nd chance. Then they might not try as hard next time in hopes of getting a 2nd chance. Best to not start a trend. That is my opinion.
