[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 460013, member: 1991"] I wrote a summary of "The Explosive Child" and gave it to the teacher. I sat down and role-played it with them. Also with the aide. The aide got it and was on board. And lately, the teachers all get it too. I also always go in with the approach of "We're a team, you and I, in trying to meet the needs of this child. I know it isn't easy, I know you want to throttle him sometimes - believe me, I get it because I live with him. But if we can share with one another anything we find that helps, then we both can win." I do find this helps de-fuse any potential hostility in most school staff. There will always be some hard cases you can't reach, however. But this teacher sounds reachable. Marg [/QUOTE]
