[QUOTE="Shari, post: 345512, member: 1848"] They at least understand now that [I]you have to know Wee to handle Wee [/I]and there is no black and white in dealing with Wee. You have to stop and think thru every thing you do with him. SpEd teacher said she could bring in almost anyone highly skilled in behavior and even they wouldn't know what to do from the git-go. So they at least get that. That is good info to have for the future. SpEd director just can not wrap her mind around his inability to hang onto some things from one day to the next (ie suspension as punishment) yet he can hang onto something that frustrates him for several days. I don't feel I made much headway with that...something that frustrates him is something that he understands, perceives to be unjust, and is passionate about. Suspension...[I]if[/I] he connects the dots that his behavior equals no school tomorrow, time is of absolutley no relevance to Wee...by "tomorrow", whatever he did have about it was gone...which is the same reason he still feels periodically bad about trangressions that happened weeks ago, yet will do the same thing later today or tomorrow....timme has no meaning to him. Literally. He still struggles to understand "yesterday" and "tomorrow" - how the heck is a suspension "tomorrow" (or, better yet, on a Monday for a Friday transgression) going to mean squat? Anyway. It is a start. I'm relatively numb about it all at the moment. [/QUOTE]
