[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 341074, member: 7916"] Suspended??? This is getting surreal. Who is sent to help Wee when he is spitting and hitting the walls? Is the Sp Ed teacher trained to help in this situation? Or, does the principal take over? What is the school's goal at that point? Does the Sp Ed teacher try to calm him down so he can return to class or does the school go into "discipline" mode at that point? Clearly, the school's goal should be to help him calm down and finish the day. At my difficult child's school the autism inclusion specialist intervenes when a child completely disregulates. She helps the child calm down and, hopefully, return to class. My difficult child has had a couple of days where he could not return to the mainstream class, but was able to work one-on-one with his aide the rest of the day. So, I really think the school isn't doing its job. I agree with LDM that taking your psychiatrist to your next meeting might help. Our experience was similar to LDM's. The school granted every accomodation for difficult child that our psychiatrist asked for. It really felt like we took an elephant into the room and said, "So, here he is! What are you going to do now?" They really couldn't ignore him. [/QUOTE]
