[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 243856, member: 3444"] When difficult child 2 brought a knife to school and then made threatening remarks to another student, his therapist said he needed to apologize in writing to everyone who had to get involved (the other student, his teacher, the vice principal, ME, etc.) We talked a lot about the effect his words and actions that day had on everyone -- the fear, the worry, the frustration, all of it. He felt very badly when we put it in those terms, especially when the therapist said how it had hurt me, his mother (he's got a very close bond with me). So I agree that apologies would be in order after he's made to understand the effects his behavior has on others. And going without something that is very important to him for a set period of time would be an appropriate add-on to his sentence as well. [/QUOTE]
