[QUOTE="Wishing, post: 221704, member: 1782"] With mine at 6yrs old we had him on ritalin and that worked for awhile then in3rd grade we added clonidine and that helped for awhile then he went off clonidine and went on zyprexa(huge weight gain) and concerta and then we stopped the zyprexa and went on abilify and concerta and that worked for awhile and then switched to resperidol and ritalin at 16yo. Knowing how volatile he is I would have let him play with what he wants and at his age an 100 peice puzzle is too demanding that is for a fourth grader. He needs to start with a 4 piece puzzle and if he does well with that to move ahead with a 10 piece. I would say to them start with where the student is at not where you are at!! And if he is frustrated give him something that he is good at to calm him down. Also the room should be structured so that he is in-between two students who are absolutely calm. Mine was seated next to 2 A students and one of which never talked but was on task always. In my opinion you need to let them know how they mishandled things and let them and the prinicipal know.It would be good if you had someone go with you for support. [/QUOTE]
