[QUOTE="1905, post: 437237, member: 2668"] Don't worry about the school, they won't call. Here's why: Wee is at ESY, that's a Special Education program. He has behavior issues and that's why he's there. It's not his fault, and hopefully they're working on ways he can communicate and of course they won't (and shouldn't) punish him, or think less of him, or your family. In fact, the opposite will be true. They'll be more forgiving, kind and loving toward him. Please don't worry. I work as a classroom assistant with autistic K-3rd grade. We have a 2nd grade student who pinches me all day long. When he does that, he's trying to tell me something (he's non-verbal). I feel so bad that he's upset and try to figure out what he wants. I even say "show me". Or he'll grab my hand and bring me somewhere. I love this kid to pieces, I love all our students, the point is, I would NEVER get mad at these kids. We don't allow him to pinch, nor do we give him a consequence other than a firm "No" because he wouldn't undertand anything else!!!
