[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 448973"] First of all, welcome to our little family. You have found a great place with tons of knowledge. Sorry but I need to ask more questions than I give any advice but they will help us give you helpful ideas. What did they use as a basis for needing a behavior plan if his behaviors were a direct result of bullying? Common sense says that if you deal with the bullying, the behaviors will go away. After the meeting, did anyone from the IEP team have YOU sign the form saying you agree with the plan as it is written? Did you sign it as is? Did you disagree with any of it? Have they given you a written copy of the plan that was agreed upon at the meeting? If you liked the plan that the team decided on at the meeting AND you sign it as is without any objections, they have a "reasonable amount of time" to implement the plan. The "tweeking" needs to be done with team approval depending on what they are tweeking. Since it seems like it has been more than two months, I would put in writing (keep a copy for yourself) a request for A) the plan to be implemented immediately stating that more than two months is NOT a reasonable amount of time OR B) describe for you [U]in detail[/U] why they are not able to implement the plan as agreed upon by the IEP team. Specify an exact date you expect a response but don't give them more that 1 week from the date you "anticipate" they will receive the letter. The other choice is to hand deliver the letter but have BOTH copies signed by the person you gave it to at the school. I would send it certified mail with return receipt requested. You can also contact an advocate to answer some of your questions and to help you personally deal with these issues. As for them pushing medications, [U]my[/U] conversation might sound something like this: School: "Have you given any more thought to medications for ___________?" Me: "I [B]MIGHT[/B] consider medications if you can show me proof that the behavior plan we decided on isn't working." Again, welcome. [/QUOTE]
