[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 381959, member: 3444"] Well I finally heard back from the AP. The boys were sent to talk to the counselor for "conflict mediation." They each agreed that while they don't have to like eachother, they do have to treat eachother with respect and they won't do anything to bother one another. I asked for clarification on this, since my understanding was that the problem had always been one-sided, and the way the AP was talking it made it sound like difficult child 2 was part of the problem. The AP said that difficult child 2's part in the situation was simply a reaction to what the other boy was doing, and that he has now instructed difficult child 2 to not say anything at all to the other person if this happens again, and to go directly to the AP to tell him what's happening so that he can intervene. Hopefully, just knowing that there is a responsive adult to turn to will be enough to keep difficult child 2's frustration from boiling over next time. The band teacher is out until Monday, and so far no one has addressed his part in this at all. I will be waiting to see if he responds to my original e-mail. You can bet I will express my concern over his insensitivity with difficult child 2 when I get the chance! husband has also asked the case manager teacher to contact the other class teachers that difficult child 2 shares with this boy to arrange for them to be seated away from eachother. She said she'd talk to them. [/QUOTE]
