[QUOTE="Andrea Danielle, post: 23146, member: 2357"] Pigless, glad I made you feel better about not being rigid like the rest of them! Good job!! Here is an update on our situation.... We had a meeting last week with the director of the program, the social worker and the teachers. There wasn't enough time to go through everything we needed to so we discussed the coat, the lack of interest in learning about Tourette's Syndrome and BiPolar (BP) but not the snacks. It was clear that the director (who has not been involved up to this point) is supporting his staff, and even made a comment about that he doesn't understand how being forced to zip up his coat can cause explosions later in the day - so that pretty much summed up his understanding of the issues... We were supposed to have a follow up meeting yesterday but it was cancelled because of the weather. In any case it was probably a good thing that it was cancelled, I have decided that there is no use continuing this, we are just going to remove him from the program after March break. I found another Special Education class for him. I still want to complain though for what we have endured, so I plan to write a long letter to the agency. Oh, did I mention that we only just received his first IEP of the year last Friday, the end of February! That was due 30 days after he started in September! They are really not doing things according to the law! I will of course mention all of this in my letter What an ordeal! I hate to move him at this point in the year but I think we have no choice and I feel good about the class he will be going to. Take care, Andrea [/QUOTE]
