[QUOTE="Shari, post: 181705, member: 1848"] Well, the good news is that IHBT came tonight and she now gets it that positive reinforcement isn't cutting it. I didn't even try to impress her with her own methods tonight, when difficult child started kicking me, I packed him out of the room and shut him in his room and said "you are not going to kick me". That's a far cry from her suggestion of "ow, that hurts me" and walking away. Been doing that a month now and he's just gotten worse. She said she liked my tactic. Our first order of business right now is getting back to a livable level with him - getting school and agression back under some semblance of control. Starting with a meeting at school and a behavior plan of some sort. She still maintains that public school is out without a 1-on-1, and that would need to be in place BEFORE HE EVER SET FOOT in the buiding, not after they'd tried it and it failed. Which I totally agree. And right now, I still think the private school is the better option because of class size/student teacher ratio, and instructional method. I think I'll have far more luck getting his teachers there to follow a behavior plan than I would in the public setting. So we will see. I overheard IHBT telling husband when I went to retrieve my planner from the car that she realizes now this is a little more than positive reinforcement will fix and we're doing a great job, but she can see I'm running on E. Ya think? [/QUOTE]
