[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 343048, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Is difficult child in a contained setting at school? The one thing that most bothers me about a contained setting (which the tweedles have been in since kindegarten & 3rd grades respectively) is the influence of the other kids with behaviorial & emotional disorders. Kids who cannot regulate their choices & have little to no impulse control (including my little wonders). kt & wm have been taught from the git go the definition of a friend as we see it. Friends don't harm you ~ physically or emotionally (rumors & the like), they watch your back & in turn the tweedles watch their friends backs. As we've taught this we've worked on many social skills along with teaching kt & wm core values & beliefs (hoping they are sinking in); how to stand up to their friends or walk away when trouble is being hatched. We're seeing (albeit slowly) both of the tweedles start to see who is & isn't a friend. Manster is young & has some learning to do. Like you, we dictated who could & couldn't hang with the tweedles; at the same time we had constant kids over here so I could watch what was going on & step in when needed. ML, this is such a tough age - these kids want to fit in somewhere ~ anywhere. Some of those "bad" kids do grow out of it, others don't. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
