[QUOTE="Sunlighthealer, post: 274397, member: 7437"] ARP is Administrative Review Panel. Basically, my 6 yo will have to sit in front of a group of people from the district and tell them, on a microphone, what happened when he got suspended, as well as what he is going to do in the future to make sure it doesn't happen again and things like that. Of course, the longer the time in between the incident and this ARP, the less he is going to remember. I definitely think the Dr. who evaluated him what pretty accurate in her determination. It was a child psychologist thru Kaiser. He can get along well with children his age, but if he feels wronged by them in any way, he has been known to act out. Usually pushing and slapping is how he would handle these things, but that has been less recently. On my side, there is depression with both my mother and I, and mm also suffers from Anxiety, though recently I think I have been heading that way with all that has been going on. Unfortunately, due to my mother being adopted, we don't know anything about the rest of her side. husband was considered Severly Emotionally Disturbed as a child. Of course when we were children, less was known about mood disorders. He has told me any times that our difficult child is exactly the way he was when he was a child, yet it is much harder for him to accept and deal with the way difficult child is. I guess that is understandable, yet difficult for me at the same time. husband has also told me that Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) tend to run in his family. I like the idea of the book that goes to and from school everyday. His teacher and I have always been good about contacting each other via email, but having the book is a great idea. The Psychologist I am going to be calling tomorrow specializes in these types of disorders, and uses Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, which I have read can be successful for ODD. I will be contacting the school about the IEP, and the length of his suspension/date till review panel. I agreed with the week, but definitely not the 3, and I was to see if there is anything the principal can possibly do to get it moved up. Maybe a note from the psychologist would help with this. But I feel that 3 week is only going to do more harm than good. Thank you for listening. [/QUOTE]
