[QUOTE="Christy, post: 151603, member: 225"] This is such a tough situation. I'm sorry that it happened to your difficult child. When my son was in psychiatric hospital, he got a very bad black eye and bruise on the side of his head. They called and told me that while he was out of control, he slipped in his socks and hit the edge of a table. He eventually needed a PRN injection to calm down. When I talked to my son and said to be more careful, he said that he did not slip and fall but he was pushed down by a man trying to give him an injection. difficult child really isn't manipulating enough to lie so I was obviously very distressed by this. I had the fight the urge to have him removed immediately. The more I thought about how difficult difficult child can be when he is enraged and how much flailing around he does, I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and consider it an unfortunate accident. But after that, I worried about him constantly until he was discharged. You are right to be concerned. Does the school inform you everytime restraint is necessary? I would insist on that and then make it a habit to casually ask difficult child about the day, checking to see if the the reports are reasonabley similar. If your child reports being pushed or shoved, and you have not been informed of the need for restraint, question the school and ask for an explanation of the situation. Good Luck Christy [/QUOTE]
