[QUOTE="TexasTornado, post: 38494, member: 3379"] Thanks Everyone, He is in a self contained classroom-but gets to go out to mainstream depending on his functioning level-which changes day to day etc. He is pretty high functioning as far as language, but wont-repeat wont express feelings AT ALL-so that could be it-as I know he had a frustrating day....he was doing soooo well too, which makes me think he might need a tweek on his medications too.... He is in a behavior self contained classroom-they dont feel hes severe enough to go into the Autism classroom-it has downs kids and MR kids etc. But I wonder if its because of his behaviors-would they scare the kids in there? But I dont think the aides in this classroom see him as anything other than a behavior problem-so they try to work with him with their own typical system(and we all know that doesnt work) but try telling them that. So he spent alot of the day in the timeout room-which he likes? They have changed their normal system though-as it is supposed to be a reward for behavior to go mainstreamed and he hates it in there-hed prefer to go into the self contained classroom. So they have swapped it-and he can earn recesses in the self contained classroom etc, and he is mainstreamed pretty much all day with an aide not depending on his level like it is with the other kids in the program. I guess I just don't understand why the cause hasnt been figured out yet for the behaviors. They say it is task avoidance and then they do the timeout, but i don't think its getting to the problem-as I don't know if they talk to him abt it etc-if they try and figure out the why's and its frustrating as he doesnt display this level of aggression at home-sometimes, but not like this. I keep wondering if that other classroom would be better and I dont understand why it wasnt offered to us? I know other parents with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) kids in there????I just think they would understand the behavior better-right? Anyway...Ill be calling the doctor to talk abt it.....Thanks for the advice everyone. Luvz, Kathy [/QUOTE]
