[QUOTE="teachergirl, post: 96562, member: 4304"] Again, I was not judging the parents, only telling you what has actually happened so far.... As I said in my previous post, I do not know what goes on at home. I only know what has been said and done at school and the impressions, right or wrong, that those events/conversations have given. I thought that parents here would have some good advice. A response or two here has been pretty demoralizing. I'm trying to get better at my job.. Yes, he has an IEP for math but that may not last long as he may no longer qualify and that is going to make behavior issues intensify because right now he gets special considerations because he under the Special Education umbrella. He does not have an aide, can't see that he will ever have an aide. The only children with aides in our school are those in wheelchairs that need physical assistance. I certainly did not intend to get into a "war of words" because someone thinks I am judging parents.(I am a parent too). I am here because I want what is best for this kiddo and was hoping to get some ideas. Gosh, I am judged harshly by parents every single day. I know exactly what that feels like and that was not my intent in seeking help here and I certainly did not expect this kind of response:( I got the book "The Explosive Child" yesterday at the library and am about halfway through it. I think I have done a little of Plan A, a lot of Plan C lately and some Plan B when time permits. The book makes a lot of sense and I am eager to see if it will help. If this child stays signed up for my class, I will have him for the next two years too so I may be able to make some progress with this plan over time. Yes, it is wonderful to have a phone and internet and intercom. The last school I was at didn't have any of those in my room and physically I was very isolated as well. Kind of scary. The secretaries would call me on my cell phone. I considered asking for some reimbursement (ha ha, would never happen!). [/QUOTE]
