[QUOTE="klmno, post: 380815, member: 3699"] I get that. And since I don't know how things play out in your jurisdiction but I am fully aware that they play out differently in diiferent places and for different people, I won't say that this opinion is a strong one. OK? But here it is- You very well might end up before a judge at some point whether you take it to court or the sd's calling in police does. If you are in court and the sd presents that they have tried so many para's, working with you on an IEP, BIP, suggestions, etc and "this boy" has still fought back and gone so far as to "assault teachers on more than one occassion to the point that we have felt the need to notify police and we really don't have anything else we can do for this child". And then you say "if the para had just done ABC"--- well, you might not win or even get the judge to take you serious. If, on the other hand, you take a position of "I know we have tried every idea we can in IEP meetings and while i still think accommodations thru the IEP would solve this problem, I realize that the sd does not, therefore I can only take the position that the sd needs to find a school where Wee's educational needs can be met because clearly, this school cannot meet them and the law requires that they find a way to educate an 8yo child", I think you have a much better chance. It is VERY hard but when legal authorities become involved, we parents have to start discussing our kids like they are clients instead of our offspring or we will not be taken seriously- at least where I live.
