[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 81489, member: 1233"] Take the IEP, it can protect your child. You must elarn about it and the Special Education forum here is the place to do it. Our archives and forum are just AMAZING. They really make it easy to get the info and use it. As far as him moving schools, is he doing well in his school? Does he have friends? Does he function well? My difficult child is an Aspie, he has had multiple times of violent/homicidal thoughts and suicidal thoughts, and actions of each. Currently he is stable and functioning when he chooses. Your son has a RIGHT to what we call FAPE - a Free and Appropriate Public Education. You are a PART of the IEP team. You do NOT have to agree to anything at all you don't feel is appropriate. Period. What is your gut instinct telling you about his education, where he should go to school, whether he is going to hurt someone? You have the BEST idea of what is going on. We call it your Mommy Instinct, and it is tops. You are with your son much more than any teacher, doctor, therapist, or other person. So if your gut tells you NO WAY, then make NO WAY happen. That being said, it may be worth it to go visit the other school for a day, see what is going on there adn how things are handled. You might be surprised, it might be a good thing. As far as the lunch appointment, if you can keep him home, why not? They are not going to do muchin a half day of school. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
