[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 344726, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Terry, I read your description of difficult children tutor with great interest. When I interview staff for kt (& wm when he was here) the last thing I want is a non stop talker; worse someone who is going to argue. AND the last person I would hire is someone who interrupts me when I have a door closed & am working on something ~ especially when staff should be able to redirect or find another resource. (I believe my rule has gone from temp & vomiting to profuse bleeding &/or compound fracture:winking:) Honey, that's what you need. I fear that your tutor may be encouraging difficult child & his tendency to argue, then rage ~ see where I'm going here? A tutor, PCA, whatever you have in your home should know & accept your rules & boundaries ~ no questions asked. For tutoring & such we use an independent living skills worker; they not only work with the tweedles on academics they also teach them coping skills, how to lower frustration levels, redirection while also taking them out in the community to learn those skills. As always I say this with concern not as a criticism. AND I don't see this as your issue other than you need a tutor, whatever, that abides by your house rules & can teach difficult child the same.
