[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 503921, member: 8831"] [I]The school begs me to move him to "special schools" that I can't afford [/I]if the school is aware of a more appropriate setting THEY need to pay for it, transportation and all--the burden doesnt fall on you to pay. sounds like a team meeting to discuss least restrictive placement is in order, and you *are* part of the team-they cant unilaterally make a change without your input. my normal reccomendation would be to get the school, at the very least, to re-evaluate him, but honestly, if i was in your shoes, i'd probably hold off until he's more stable. in my opinion, i'm not so sure even an FBA/BIP is worth the paper its written on in this case, at this exact moment in time. to me, it doesnt sound like any amount of behavior mod is going to magically fix this issue. (both may be very appropriate down the line, just not right now) it also sounds like the medical issues need to be dealt with [I]yesterday[/I]--poor kid. so glad you finally found a doctor (neurologist i hope) to investigate. i too immediately thought seizures before i even got to that part--the passing out part of your history seems, to me, to be a ginormous clue to what is happening medically. i feel for you...its so hard to have to deal with a child with issues and educate yourself on medical/pyschiatric stuff at the same time--its completely overwhelming. welcome ;-) [/QUOTE]
