[QUOTE="buddy, post: 488452, member: 12886"] Maybe bio mom (wow, trying to wrap my head around this,lol....most of us are begging for the IEP) does not understand what an IEP is??? (and understatement??) So, she thinks that handling it thru punishment will work? I suspect if it would, you all would have a perfect child right now! So, she is turning down an opportunity to give herself educational rights that without an IEP she does not have. There are limits on suspensions, specific goals and laws that guide the kinds of interventions they can use. The goals are based on his strengths and weaknesses and they work on developing skills to handle frustration and social skills. I am sure you have tried..... I wonder what legal advocay your difficult child can have that would help him to get what he needs educationally??? You are bonus mom, does that mean you are with bio dad or bio mom? Just wondering how complicated this all gets...smile! bless your heart for caring so much and seeking help. I think if you look up IEP and 504 modifications for kids with adhd and behavior problems, it sounds like his school might be willing to support him in some ways anyhow. a a504 plan can be witten to make accomodations for his disability like lessening assignments, helping with organization, social skill groups etc. It s just an agreement that the child will have equal access to school thru the ADA....due to his medical condition of adhd. Of course, the best things to do are to get a full evaluation (including a neuropsychologist evaluation, maybe an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation, a speech/language evaluation) in the private sector. Then he can get some additional support if needed...... counseling will help only if hte problem is in part or whole due to a psychological issue that he can process through. Many of our kids are not so good at that. But it might be a place to help him feel better, you wont know until you try! His behaviors are probably more than just ODDish and maybe even ADHD. he may have motor, social, processing etc. problems. he also may have mental health problems like mood disorders or anxiety disorders. by the way, since he has a disability maybe legal aid, the disability dept can help??? or just legal aid if it is for you to get hlep??? they have an intake that can help you find out. In oru state they are helping me get appropraite educational accomodations for my son. Tough and different situation. I'm glad you are here... sounds like the little guy is really struggling. The longer he does not receive intervention that is appropriate to the root cause/causes....the harder it is to undo ineffective and anti social coping behaviors.
