[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 324296, member: 1991"] Different people respond in different ways. The thing is here - she DID apologise, she has acknowledged the error. Whether reluctantly or otherwise - it's now there in writing. I would accept it as such and work from here. Mistakes happen. It is important to accept this too. However, such mistakes can be very bad for our kids. I think it is important for everyone to make something positive out of this and to put in place, and PRACTICE it, a strategy for ensuring this doesn't happen again. I would also ensure that a statement is accepted by the school to the effect that any problems caused by difficult child as a result of him not being medicated, are not to be taken out on difficult child. Iin other words - if the teacher fails to medicate him and he pushes some kid over the cliff, the school is the one responsible and not difficult child. I know iths sounds exrteme but sometimes you have to give extreme examples for the school to "get it'. In other words - no serious harm done this time, so lets use it as a learning experience to make sure nothing serious ever DOES happen. Sometimes schools are too focussed on punishment and not on true learning and genuine prevention. Marg [/QUOTE]
