[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 594119, member: 3419"] Me too! He spent that rest of that class period in room 116, which is ISS. That was all. No note, no phone call. Hmm. He said he finished his math assignment but I don't know for sure. His explanation was that he was staring into space, the teacher told him to hurry up and work the in-class problem, then immediately went onto the next problem. At that point, he was lost (it only takes a minute for him!). So he started to doodle. She got mad and told him she was going to call his parents. In his typical Aspie way, knowing not to argue, he said, "Okay." Any NT would take that as being a jerk, so I can see both POVs. I explained to him 3X when he got home, what his attitude looked like to other people. He was still defiant. I told him he HAS to pretend to be humble and say "I'm sorry," instead of "Okay," and he didn't get it. husband talked to him and then difficult child came to me and apologized. I suspect he'll be calmer today, having had the Concerta. Maybe we can talk about it again. Yesterday was useless. [/QUOTE]
