[QUOTE="nvts, post: 243848, member: 3814"] Shari! Sorry to hear you've been sick. Listen: take a long hard look at things, but look at it from your 6 yr olds perspective. Has anything changed? New students, any situations at home (no matter how small = an extra goldfish in the fishtank derailed things around here for a couple of days!), etc. Take a look at the timing - did you get sick (even with a head cold - to a 6 year old it's still a huge thing!) and then his behavior tanked? Here's where I'm going with this. To us, change is no big deal. Heck, even if it is - you can't just refuse to change, you force yourself to go with the flow. To our guys, change is HUGE. And they CAN refuse change by hitting, pushing, fighting or melting down or any combination of them. The change can be as simple as they're now using yellow chalk instead of white on the chalkboard. Shoot: we go through this type of behavior with difficult child 1 when he ANTICIPATES change! He's a real joy sometimes - let me tell you! Also, consider whether there may be sensory issues going on. difficult child 3 melted down every single day at the end of lunch in K and 1st grades. 9 suspensions later, I figured out that they were putting the kids into the auditorium after lunch but before the next period. The sound was deafening, but when she tried to explain, they'd shout at her and tell her to stay in her seat. I'll throw out any other ideas that may come to mind! Take some tylenol and tea and hit the sack! Beth [/QUOTE]
