[QUOTE="Star*, post: 333812, member: 4964"] Hi - If your son is having this many problems in the classroom why hasn't anyone suggested a meeting for an IEP? If he had this it would/could get him a shadow paid for by the school district. This could prevent that business of rolling around on the floor and the walking into the walls. That's for attention Mom NOT son being crazy - he's TRYING whatever he can do to get a laugh from the other kids, and of course getting attention from the teacher....he's getting it (not positive attention) but attention nontheless. (I have his twin at my house). ahem. The Shadow helps by redirecting him to more positive activities when his ADHD reaches peaks and he's bored....he can take him out of the class when he recognizes that he's at "that" stage....and give him a break. Tap him on the shoulder. Give him one on one. Stuff like that. And the district pays for it. Not you, not S/O not ya'lls insurance. :winking: been there done that - It can also be written into his IEP that for a portion of his classroom time he can have certain things to help him concentrate like a set of headphones, or IPOD....(no kidding) or that he can do a puzzle when he's completed an assignment or is on task - gets a reward of XXX?? (you choose) LOTS of things can be done to assist him. My son has been on 65 medications....plus. He's now 19. He's been in and out of Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s, psychiatric hospitals, had dozens of counselors, been in foster care - the list (sadly) goes on. I'm just a Mom, we never found a medication that works. We never got a firm diagnosis of BiPolar (BP) either even though it is rampant on bio fathers side. Then again - biofather is a sociopath and psychopath - but we're hoping therapy changed those brain patterns. :angel3: Hope he's better today - glad you found your rhinoskin and your Warrior Mom dialing finger. VERY handy things to have if you have a kid like ours. Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
