[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 440724, member: 3493"] I disagree with one point of seriously's answer. If she refuses to go in, CALL the office from the car - do not leave an already upset child alone in a car even for two minutes. The autism specialist can be very helpful. We had an FBA for our son (difficult child, who is not on the spectrum but the guy was an autism specialist). He figured out that difficult child was LOVING the school's punishment of sending him home when he misbehaved and that it was causing him to act out even more. Once that was stopped, he stopped because he realized he'd be punished at home for school misbehaviors (don't reallly believe in that but the school could not devise a punishment that worked - other than taking away advanced math class, which we refused to do). A good FBA can be a great help. Also, have you given thought to an out of district placement. We sent our oldest son - mild Aspie, ADD inattentive - to a special HS for Aspie kids and it was great. We sent another son to an out of district middle school for kids with LDs (he's dyslexic); he came back to district this year and did great but he has no behavioral or psychiatric issues. My argument was that the LRE doesn't necessarily mean the district school. For my sons, LRE meant OOD because that's where they could learn. Good luck to you. [/QUOTE]
