[QUOTE="MyHrt31, post: 256398, member: 6666"] Welcome to the board! Do you have a psychologist or psychiatrist that could back you up in your suggestions? My son's doctors are AMAZING! He sees a psychiatrist, psychologist, and therapist and each one is willing to back me up if I request something that will help my difficult child in school. The psychologist and therapist have even attended IEP meetings with me to support and advocate for both me and my son. (I know, we are VERY lucky) My difficult child has had his recess and computer time taken away from him and it did nothing for him. My son's psychologist recommends that his work is literally cut into quarters. The teacher would have to use a timer to get him to do one quarter at a time and in between, he would be allowed a short break. Maybe he could help the teacher with a chore during this short break to get his energy out. Then she'd set the timer again, and he'd complete another quarter. It is time consuming and you have to find a teacher who is willing to do it but if its in the IEP, they are REQUIRED to do it. I hope this helps :) Hang in there, we all know what you are going through. [/QUOTE]
