[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 259085, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]kt was just transferred from a Special Education self contained room in a high school setting (drop from level 5 to level 3, I believe) to day treatment. kt was doing so well in day treatment everyone felt it was time to take the next step; SD refused to listen to our therapist's opinion, our mental health case manager nor our very involved CADI manager. It turned into a disaster as SD pushed kt out of self contained into mainstream for an art course. There she met a young man who saw kt coming & well, let's just say there was an illegal act performed on my ktbug with 5 of the other well behaved mainstreamed gentlemen watching or helping. Needless to say that along with husband's recent death pushed kt back into day treatment & soon back to inpatient (as soon as a bed opens). Mainstream isn't the answer for many of our children. AND once our children hit high school, the staff in Special Education do demand some accountability out of our kids. They are too close to the "real world". SDs are working on either mainstream or transition plans to other settings. Not much in behaviorial intervention. PW, I give you & that SD, but mostly difficult child, if this is pulled off. in my humble opinion, if our difficult children cannot or will not be a part of the treatment team, for whatever reason, we may as well be whistling Dixie & hope something good happens. kt is more a part of her treatment plan than wm ~ she's operating at 10 yrs of age if we're lucky; wm at around 3 or 4. I'm concerned when a SD doesn't recognize developmental age appropriate behaviors versus chronological age appropriate. It's a huge difference that must be addressed. I hope this works for your young difficult child ~ he's come a long way. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
