[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 83302, member: 393"] Kjs, difficult child, and in turn, you have been having huge problems with school this year. Please don't take this the wrong way, but I wonder if difficult child doesn't need a more contained, smaller setting - or a 1:1 aide to help him navigate school; to have a successful school year. He's struggling. I'm not sure forcing him at this time is helping your difficult child if he cannot process what he needs to do. At this time, he's not getting the education because he cannot seem to stay in class; you're spending many many hours on the phone, emailing teachers trying to figure the problem out. After 2 very frustrating years of pushing to keep kt in mainstream we transferred her to a more contained smaller school setting. I have to say with the smaller room, the resources to deal with her need to walk about, fidget, etc, she's doing well academically. While not at grade level - she's closer than she ever has been. The most helpful intervention has been an exercise ball. She uses that instead of a chair at her desk. It really helps with her anxiety & her inability to sit still. Again - please do not take this the wrong way. I don't mean to offend. I'm thinking of how frustrated & tired your difficult child seems to be (from your other posts). I'm hoping he isn't dreading & learning to hate school because of his disorder. Use what you can of this & ignore the rest. [/QUOTE]
