[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 325236, member: 805"] It is very important, in my opinion, when you have a difficult child that has behavior issues at school, to have a good BIP in place. That requires a really insightful FBA. You, as his mother, should have some suggestions for what works with your son. What consequences and what rewards and incentives are productive. This doesn't mean that he will always act appropriately, but it hopefully means that he will begin to self modulate, lessen the frequency and severity of times intervention is called for. Whether the principal buys into the diagnosis or the idea of special needs is of no matter. The law requires the school to provide your son the same opportunities as their "typical' students. I would suggest you sit down and speak with difficult child's therapist or psychiatrist for some recommendations on in school consequences. Unfortunately, inschool suspension is about what your difficult child had - perhaps they didn't call it that but..... When my difficult child was in elementary school and needed that time away from the classroom, the principal and asst principal made sure the teachers provided him with work to do when he was in the office or the principal's office. It wasn't going to sit and twiddle his thumbs. That may be one thing you should ask happens when he is pulled out. You haven't done a signature yet so I can't remember how old your difficult child is. Please take the time to do that because, with so many members, it's difficult for us to remember the individual situations. His age has a lot to do with what consequences are appropriate. Go online to wrightslaw.com - they have some great suggestions for IEPs and FBAs for kids with discipline issues. Also ldonline.com and specialed.us (that site is specific to Wisconsin, but has generic info as well) are great sources of general information and suggestions for his IEP. Research, research, research. Make sure your request for an FBA is sent certified letter. Find out how long your state law dictates the school has to respond and reference that in the letter. I would also indicate in that letter that you will be bringing his new evaluation and diagnosis papers. Also request a copy of an FBA for you to fill out prior to the meeting. It will give you extra time to really give the questions some thought. Good luck. Sharon [/QUOTE]
