[QUOTE="sandman3, post: 128755, member: 4719"] I have a child with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and this does not sound like your problem, more likely Bi-polar or other mood disorder. (Of course, I am NOT a psychiatrist, which I definitely think you need to have you child completely re-assessed by professionals) The teacher that handled this particular situation is clearly completely incompetent and I highly recommend you go ahead and file a complaint. When I was struggling with my difficult child's school issues the first time, I was scared and lost and frustrated, but finally got really ticked off and called the State Department of Public Instruction, and got ahold of the head of Exceptional Children for the entire state. Told him my issues and let me just say, the VERY NEXT DAY (no joke!), the school administration was running around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to make some more "appropriate" arrangements for my child. It was the best darn thing I ever did!! Not only did difficult child's situation get straightened out, the school administration had a, shall we say, "new found respect" for me as the mother. A "safe place" is NOT a place for punishment! It is a place that is offered to the child to allow them a chance to regain their composure....you're difficult child should never be forced to go there. Keep you head up, you are the best one to advocate for your child, don't give up! [/QUOTE]
