[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 369572, member: 7664"] Hi Sharon, I am very wary of how school's implement the reward/consequence systems~ in our experience, it gets abused and consequences are doled out at inappropriate times. At his summer program he was losing minutes of recess/free time every day and it really made him not want to engage/participate even more. One day they even carried over the lost minutes to the next day's free time~believe me it was extremely difficult to get him to school that day ~ can you imagine being 5 and knowing the day is already going to start with a consequence?! If I try to pursue a neuropsychologist evaluation or psychiatrist evaluation, it will take months to get in. I need action now~lol! [/QUOTE]
