[QUOTE="DDD, post: 609901, member: 35"] I am not an expert but I got a call years ago that a meeting was going to be held about youngest difficult children behavior. The word "manifestation" was not used. Thank heavens I came to the Board and realized that I needed to be prepared for a SERIOUS meeting where he could be expelled from the school. Make sure you have all your records with you when you go. If an advocate is available take one with you. I am not easily intimidated but the Dean and VP of the elementary school did not want difficult child as a student in "their" school. If you are not prepared to strongly advocate for your child it's like walking into a buzz saw. I am not trying to frighten you but want you to know that these meetings can have grave consequences. A vote of all present determined that difficult children behavior WAS a manifestation of his disabilities. The Dean was so irate that he filed papers for Juvenile Justice to interview difficult child. That was a shocker. The Intake Counselor at Department of Juvenile Justice cut the meeting short after five or ten minutes because it was so obvious that difficult child was not a threat to anyone. Somehow her opinion was overridden and difficult child was on probation for six months. Geez, our justice system stinks. Even his PO didn't even come in the house but would call and say have difficult child play out front so I can see him when I drive by. I wish you good luck. Just want you to know never to "underestimate" "the system". DDD [/QUOTE]
