[QUOTE="Andy, post: 505486, member: 5096"] The arm was still red when you saw it - That is way beyond harsh and it doesn't matter if your son is difficult child or not, no one should be squeezing a child's arm for ANY reason! You should not need to bring up your son's handicaps when dealing with this one or you will be sending the message that if he was a easy child it would be o.k. "Mr. ______, Can I talk to you? When I picked my son up the other day, he was very upset. He was disappointed that he had angered you. He showed me his arm where he stated you had squeezed it while telling him he was doing something wrong. The arm was still red. Is this a common discipline the students need to go through for not following an instruction correctly? My son is very excited about this program but I do not want him being hurt whenever he makes a mistake. If this is going to continue, then I will need to pull him from the course AND report your discplinary strategies to the school. I do not want to do this at this time. I would rather believe that it was a one time mistake on your part. I know sometimes it is difficult keeping the kids on task even in this fantastic program that they enjoy doing. Is there a way I can help by maybe finding parents to come in and help work with the kids under your supervision?" I know you said he is not a employee of the school, however, anything that goes on in the school building is a reflection of the school. I would think the school would not allow an abusive teacher in any setting to use their facility. [/QUOTE]
