[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 22568, member: 1169"] They shouldn't be babysitting him. They should be educating him. My youngest has been spending 1-2 hours per day in a rage. It takes 3-5 adults to contain him and get him back to "ready to learn". But they do it, every day. And he gets his work done because they stay focused on the goal of getting him calmed down and back to work. As Sheila said, <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Sheila</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> One thing you need to ask for IN WRITING via CERTIFIED MAIL is a Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA). There's info in the Special Education 101 archives on FBAs. </div></div> An FBA should look at why he is acting up. Is he bored? overstimulated? is the work too difficult? does he have an Learning Disability (LD) (Learning Disability) that is frustrating him? very smart kids get very frustrated by their LDs If he needs to leave the classroom, he should be going to a counselor or social worker, not a holding pen. As Sheila said, if you can give us more background we can probably come up with better suggestions. For now, can you ignore your phone and let them deal with him? [/QUOTE]
