[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 568789, member: 8831"] maybe its me, but what in the sam hill does a meltdown the day before in a lab have to do with the next days cooking lesson? and what specifically is she supposed to be doing while there is a cooking lesson going on...sit there at stare at everyone else having fun? does she get to watch people eat cupcakes?? that just seems cruel and unusual if you ask me. that is a real reach for a consequence for a bad behavior....shouldnt that consequence be happening a) at the time b)somehow in direct correlation to the crime and c)maybe not at all depending on the a[I]ctual [/I]reason for the meltdown. i would imagine it would be more appropriate to work on calming down, cleaning up any mess she made, going to a safe place to have this meltdown (counselors office/nurse/bathroom), and working on the need to always be right. it just seems like if i were a kid, no matter how smart i was, i might have a hard time connecting the dots to such a delayed punishment that has zero to really do with the crime.... is this something you spelled out in a BIP?
