[QUOTE="buddy, post: 489164, member: 12886"] And that is exactly where I am.... that is not an option so what next. What the lawyer said we do first is to request an independent FBA. The district has a list but are open to any we suggest too. This will give us a fresh set of eyes, often the district folks do not look at how much the environment, including the people are triggering our kids. Plus, at least for our case, they are not experts in his disability area so we needed to find someone else. In addtion, I am adding some things that we will purchase thru his waiver and he can use at home and school, including an auditory/visual relaxation-neurological calming kind of thing, eeg/biofeedback, and an auditory trainer. I should find out next week which things are approved. Our kids sound very similar in many ways. What works for Q is to know the triggers and reduce them. To help navigate those social triggers, he is so easily provoked. He verbally threatens (if you dont let me I will hurt you) but doesn't do it unless he is in a panic. then he will grab or if they are coming near him he may scratch. He has never seriously injured anyone but certainly as he gets bigger the chance of an accident can happen. He has a private space in his current school. It is set up for him to have a meltdown, relax, do sensory activities or to be if he is too blurty but he can still do his work there. It has a window which is not in his class and that is a relaxation thing HE uses...he sits and counts planes or busses. since we have adjusted a little even before the independent fba, we are already seeing more work done. When the admin stays out of it..... they are following the plan better. It is amazing what happens when the right thing is done. the panic over moving him settles a little. Now if we can get admin to SEE this. It is really hard. And heart breaking. of course we dont want to do the wrong thing, we lose so much time that way. but if it is really NOT working...then what???
