[QUOTE="Star*, post: 119381, member: 4964"] I realize this therapist has been with him for 6 years - but honestly WHAT does EVERYONE think will happen when he throws a fit again, the police get called, and they show up without knowing WHAT the deal was or worse - what happens when he throws a fit again and the police DO NOT get called ? His bad behaviors win - he looses. I'm surprised a therapist would do that. I'm so sorry you had a rotten Monday. As far as forcing him to go to school - I had it written into my sons IEP that there were some days I KNEW it was just better to stay home - so we had "free" days. Didn't need a dr. excuse - but I had to send a note to school. Other teachers in the district were told about the idea - and it's caught on here. The teachers are VERY happy to have you keep your son at home if all's he's going to do is have a bad day and make things worse for him and others around him or cause something more detrimental to happen (like have to call the cops) Maybe you can suggest that - but you DO NOT TELL the child -it's for you and the teacher. Hugs ps - I also don't get why he couldn't have returned the 'thing' to the gift store and gotten his money back. IF the therapist was trying to teach him a behavior modification - wouldn't it have been BETTER to say BEFORE he bought his 'thing' "Okay Willy you can spend your dollar - but you are stuck with whatever you get and can't get your money back!" ????? Just asking Star [/QUOTE]
