[QUOTE="buddy, post: 484710, member: 12886"] Well he is out. He asked if he could try to earn his sports back. I said that was a great idea. Last night we practiced sentences to say to friends, Hi X, how are you.... I'm fine but I missed my favorite show last night... Q: oh that's nice... Me: Q, think what you should say if someone says this..... (minus the I'm fine).... I missed my favorite show.....I said how do you feel if you miss Nascar? oh.... so we try again, he is clueless So i gave him the words.... say, oh that's too bad. Maybe next week you can see it again. he practiced it. this morning I modeled a few but didn't make him practice, not the time or the medication levels to do that...lol HI X, that's a really nice shirt. WOW your hair looks cool today. I hope you have a nice day... etc. I think these guys way way way under estimate his language processing issues. He just makes "noise" to get into a conversation, to be a part of things. He even says over and over he is jealous that he is not included. So, he gets in no matter what. But when they reduce that to "seeking attention" it leaves out the important part. He doesn't just want attention. He wants to belong, to be a part of things. Just heart breaking..... well off to "review" the paper work from the last meeting. They in advance said that I can take it home for review....the sp ed coordinator knows that my lawyer would never let me sign anything...lol on the other hand, since the lawyer has complained over and over about this lady, she said when she talked to the sp ed director who is well aware of her feelings, she told her that this lady was one of the good guys at the meeting. she was the only one that admitted to saying what they said when I confronted them about any future move, how long we were in this to teach him at this site, etc..... I have thought of one thing though, for Q's sake. Once we get this finalized, if needed, since he does better with partial days there (In their opinion, but I htink partly because of them) I would agree to a partial day THERE. NOt a partial educational day. Then, if they can provide the outside things they contract for, thru an independent district that is nearby or some of the homebound things.... I MIGHT be willing to talk. Kind of like kids who do on the job training etc. no reduced day, just a different site. Q would be ok with a transition like that, we have done it between autism program and school in the past, and between private therapy and school too. AS long as it becomes a routine it would be ok. Just an idea in my back pocket which gives Q what he wants but also gives us a chance to have him in more positive settings for much of the time. [/QUOTE]
