[QUOTE="Stormywen, post: 206080, member: 3191"] My 5 year old son was exposed to drugs and alcohol prenatally. He has a diagnosis on the Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Spectrum. He has no impulse control and doesn't seem to understand consequences very well. He's taking concerta and clonidine to try to help with behavior but I don't think I see any improvement. Last year he was in a half day Special Education preschool classroom and did very well. He had some bad days but he was manageable. This year he's in kindergarten full days. His classroom has two teachers and only 18 students so the children get more teacher attention. Most of his days this year have been bad. The school is doing a great job of working with him and trying to keep him in class. His behavior has been going downhill since the beginning of the year though. I've gotten to talk to the counselor, vice-principal and principal on a regular basis unfortunately. Yesterday my son punched a boy in the privates because the boy stuck his tongue out at him. My son was sent home for the afternoon. Today he kicked a boy in the face (don't know what his reason was) and gave him a bloody nose. He's having an in-school suspension for the rest of the day so he's sitting in the office. Other than just sitting here and crying my only thought is to take him out of school completely because that's the only way I can protect these other children from getting hurt. I have no idea what else to do to help him. Wendy [/QUOTE]
