[QUOTE="SRL, post: 258214, member: 701"] I'm sorry--I'm sure this is very helpful. I'd suggest scheduling a time to sit down and talk to the pastor and children's ministry director, both for the purposes of educating as well as requesting some help from the church side. When our church has problem children, they utilize a number of strategies including incentive programs, 1:1 aides, involving a behavioral specialist who's a church member, and behavioral contracts between child/parent/teacher. It's understandable for people who don't have the training or experience to not be able to jump right in there and make a tough situation work for both the difficult child while still making the classroom experience fair for the rest of the kids. (Heck, it's tough for experienced knowledgable teachers--my daughter is getting the shaft in her school classroom this year because of an high ratio of at-risk and inclusion classmates.) Maybe suggesting the children's director/pastor ask other pastors (or diocese, national affiliation, etc) what might exist in terms of ideas or support. [/QUOTE]
