[QUOTE="slsh, post: 155170, member: 8"] Dazed - I'm getting the same question from thank you's school. The hard cold fact is, the school is responsible for thank you's safety during school hours (*especially* in my humble opinion any sped student). Because he is freely walking out of the building, in front of staff and after letting them *know* he is leaving, they are still responsible for his safety. So yes... restrain, handcuff (ok, not really - it's tempting) but for heaven's sake do something more than say "that's not a good choice". Call a truant officer. Call the police. Whatever it takes. In the meantime, my kid is roaming the big city with zip supervision because the adults, caretakers, and staff in his life are unwilling to make a stand and force the issue. If I didn't have to work to pay off his medical bills, quite frankly *I'd* be standing at the door and kicking his little posterior right back in - economics bite. Since this girl was delivered to school by parents, and since there was a *court order* that she graduate, I think school absolutely should've called police and *she* should've ended up back in front of that judge. I still say school bears responsibility here. [/QUOTE]
