[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 297588, member: 1169"] It is a physical restraint ( I think mechanical restraints are illegal in our state except in hospitals). My concern is that last year staff used restraint because they couldn't manage him. I'm hoping that this year's staff is better at not triggering him and verbally calming him down. But, as I repeatedly tell the school, once they restrain him, he will make them pay for touching him -- for the rest of the year. I'm going to give them a letter denying them the right to restrain unless (1) there is an immediate risk of harm to others (2) there is an immediate risk of serious harm to self (they are not to restrain for risk of minor injury) My big concern is I am tired of the school over-reacting to him and making the situation far worse than it was.
