[QUOTE="dadside, post: 332982, member: 5707"] The school district disagrees with your decision to follow your son's doctor's advice? Too bad for them. They are not qualified to make such a decision, and really shouldn't get into medical issues ... period. Similarly, that they aren't staffed to deal with his outbursts means either they get staffed or find a place that is appropriately staffed and still would constitute a "Least Restrictive Environment". This assumes your son has an IEP. If not, then he should have one as his disability (uncontrolled outbursts ... due to ???; other?) affects his ability to learn. If he does not have an IEP, request in writing that he be evaluated for one. I suggest you get an advocate - or education attorney - to help you now. If you don't know how to find one, let me know your state and I'll advise where to contact. In 3 (possibly more) states, there are trained free advocates available. In many states, you might at least get "live" discussion and advice, possibly with referral to a good local local resource. [/QUOTE]
