[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 145481, member: 805"] Beth, I certainly hope you took pics of the injuries. I have to tell you two things. I hope they don't sound too harsh but I feel your frustration and pain through the words in your post and I can only share with you what I would do were I in your place. First, I would yank my son out of the school pronto. Second, I would remove the stims. I can't tell you exactly what to do after that point. It's clear the school wants him gone, they don't know how to "handle" him (and I don't mean that in a negative way). He could finish the remainder of the year at home since you are a stay at home mom. If that option is not one you are willing to take, what about working out a modified day with the school. Go pick him up before lunch every day. Get his work for the remainder of the day when you pick hi up. There is not that much time left in the school year. Putting him on a modified day could do a number of positive things. He could feel relief at knowing that he doesn't have to hold it together all day long. He may be able to maintain for a few hours knowing relief is on the way. His teachers and some staff could feel a sense of relief that they don't have to "deal" with him all day and it might improve their attitude towards your son. We did this for my son when he was at his worst in second grade and it was the best thing we did for him at that time. It gave everyone breathing room and helped difficult child to feel positive again. Stop those stims this morning! If you feel in your gut, and a mother's gut is not something to play with, that they are adding to his issues, stop them. What is the worst that could happen? Tell the school on Monday, should you choose to send him back, that you are to be phoned immediately if there is an issue. You may have to be the backup until you can figure out his long term schooling situation. But I would not allow the kind of treatment your boy went through the other day. Beth, making sure that your son is safe and stable is so much more important that his finishing a worksheet at school. He will catch up once he is on a more even keel. I would not send my son back to an enviornment where he was injured. I would be livid and I would be in that administrator's office with my photos the next day!!!!! Lots of hugs. Sharon [/QUOTE]
