[QUOTE="fosterparent, post: 239994, member: 2582"] I feel your pain. My difficult child who is 12 going on 13, has been suspended twice in the last month for behavior and disrespect issues, after not being suspended at all for the past two years. First time for holding the arm of a student that had been a pest to everyone on the school bus for months while another student hit the child (3 days). This was done after I told her to take it to a teacher and tell what was going on. Which was done, to no avail. Schools are reactive (all the time) as opposed to being proactive ever. After having two snow days out of school, they had a two hour delay on the third day. My difficult child says we're out tomorrow so do I have to go today? Yes, you have missed almost a week of school. So she goes to school two hours late and an hour and a half later, I'm getting the call that difficult child has hit another student and if I don't pick her up she's going to be suspended again. Guess what she learned from that????? Be disruptive and you get to go home where you wanted to be in the first place. I asked the administrator, what are you trying to teach her and she says to me well I can't let her go back to the classroom today. Why, she has to go back to that same classroom on Monday. Makes no sense to me. Is it me or is something screwy. She has an iep, but I'm now asking for another meeting and reevaluation, and we'll see how long that takes. Very frustrating. You know once they get suspended once, if there is your difficult child and another person in a situation, your difficult child is always going to be suspect, regarding of whether they started it or ended it.
