[QUOTE="misk, post: 108133, member: 4406"] That is exactly what I think - sending him home gets him what he wants even if it is not pleasant at home - to him it is better than school! The problem today was that they had to ask the kids to leave class because they felt he was a threat (though he didn't actually throw anything this time). The kids are getting pretty scared of his tantrums and that is understandably causing more problems for the school - I would imagine some parents are getting involved. When he is home I make him do school workbooks so that he can't watch tv or play games, but that's fine with him. And I will have him write a letter to his teacher. I think what pains me the most is that he knows right from wrong, and he is sorry after the fact, but none of that seems to be able to stop him at the time....it's sad... I sort of feel that when the day is done, that I need to settle back in and try to enjoy our evening, otherwise it is a total disaster, but I worry that he ends up feeling that it's okay to act that way. I don't know........I'm feeling a bit lost! [/QUOTE]
