Ok, just got this diagnosis for my 14 yr old, any suggestions on what I tell the school? what to put in the IEP? Havent got the detailed report yet, just a brief overview of what they found. So far this year he's done well, but last year was a disaster, and I have no doubt at some point he'll derail again.
The school seems to try to help him. Last year he was suspended repeatedly for behaviors that really were linked to this. I think if they know the diagnosis they should be a little more understanding of when the kid doesn't act rationally, as long as he isn't hurting anyone. Not sure what to put in the IEP and behavior plan though. He does also have a writing disability, and his IEP is under emotional problem and writing disability thus far. Both of which he still has according to the neuropsychologist.
So, ideas?
