[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 323509, member: 393"] [SIZE=3]First off, school is already doling out consequences; personally I've never handed consequences out here if school is already handling it. Your difficult child may give up completely if he's surrounded by consequences & may not understand his inability to concentrate because of the depression. Secondly, I would ask school to knock off the isolation room. It's not working - they need to find another, more positive form to get difficult child motivated. Hand him a project that interests him (extra work), send him to study hall or library to write a paper. by the way, I believe isolation rooms are to be used for children who are out of control behaviorially & a danger to themselves or others; once placed in that room there should always be an adult in there talking with that child doing their best to calm them until the crisis passes or transport is arranged to ER. The law here states it cannot be used because a teacher is frustrated. The compliance officer checks the schools frequently to be sure those rooms are not being used indiscriminately. Good luck with the mtg. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
