[QUOTE="keepongoing, post: 472051"] I have a difficult child but I also teach a self-contained class. It is important that you will be an informed advocate for your kid in school. I recommend Wrightslaw's 'From Emotion to advocay' 2nd edition. Your kid is in a self-contained setting, he will have behaviors otherwise he'd have no business being in a self-contained setting. The school needs to have a plan on how to deal with and prevent his behaviors and the plan can not just be reactive and punative. I would ask for an FBA (Functional behavior Assessment) at the IEP meeting. If he does not have one, they should do one. Keep track of his suspensions -if they reach ten day he needs to be evaluated to see if his behaviors are due to his disability (duh) and develope a behavior intervention plan. Personally I am no fan of suspensions -all they do is teach a kid what to do to get out of school. In my experience for most kids with behavior problems suspensions are an incentive. [/QUOTE]
