[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 618392, member: 3493"] Before we got difficult child's FBA, the school used to send him home when he acted out. It was ridiculous - he WANTED to go home so he was rewarded. The main thing we got from his FBA (done in grade 6, he's a college soph now) was that he was NOT to be sent home but was to go to ISS, where everything was deadly dull. The evaluator observed in some classes, got input from his teachers and met with H and I - at the public library one evening because we didn't want the school overhearing our discussion. I think that it depends on the evaluator. Ours was excellent and was able to get the gist of difficult child pretty quickly. He even picked up on the abuse that his math/science teacher put him through, despite the fact that the teacher was actually trying to behave himself. I agree that punitive measures don't work and especially that penalties shouldn't be doubled when there's a sub because that upsets the kids' schedules. The positive that we gave difficult child was enrichment in his work - after we changed his math/science teacher. He had to behave in order to stay in honors. [/QUOTE]
