[QUOTE="Andy, post: 220768, member: 5096"] I am so sorry. I believe you will find in reading other threads that this season is difficult for many of our kids. I think it is because of the "hustle and bustle" of the holidays. Kids around them in school are talking top speed about what Christmas brings to their home. It really is a lot to take in and process. More shoppers, upbeat holiday music in the stores people in "stress" mode to find that just right gift, etc. We know it can get to be much for us some days, it is even more for difficult children. I know others will be along soon with great advise for the suspension. I don't have experience in this but I do know that many schools have In-School suspension. Is that a possibility? I also don't like that suspension is so quick and fast for lunch room activity. There should be a warning period or steps leading up to the suspension. I would think being pulled from the lunch room would be first. Ask your school for a written suspension or discipline policy. In our school, there are steps. I don't remember exactly but suspension would not be the first step. I also don't think a suspension should be called upon without first meeting with the parents and putting them on notice that the next time this issue arises there will be a suspension. [/QUOTE]
