[QUOTE="Nina, post: 93501, member: 3000"] Hi, I have been struggling with my difficult child since he was 2 1/2 when I started him at preschool. First he was asked to leave Montessori for bitting which he didnt start till going to the school he was there almost a year. Then we sent him to a Baptist school for 2 - 5 year olds he was there around 6 months and we moved him to a bigger private church school that went to the 6th grade. He went there until the last month of kindergarden when we were asked to leave. He had agressive behavior especially towards authority figures. When I think about it he did go to this school for a good while, a little over 2 years. It is still a sore subject with me because a few days before the principal told us they just didn't think they could help my child a office worker at the school slapped him for spitting at her. I felt it was because that lady, who had no business even being around my child, had done something wrong. I felt they just didn't want us there anymore. I know he had misbehaved plenty while attending I just felt that the timing had more to do with the incident than his behavior. I was so upset we had to start a brand new school with a 1 1/2 months left of school. Anyway we ditched the idea of the smaller class atomosphere you get at private school and opted for a public school. We have been there from the end of kinder to know 2nd grade. Adjusting to a new school was difficult and to be honost we still have problems. He was suspended Wed for 1 day for big surpise BITTING. URRRRR..... Anyway, I mention this because your difficult child also seems to have problems in school mainly do to behavior. I have visited this site for about a year and find it extremely supportive and helpful. I am defintely not an expert and I'm sure others will be around shortly to give you better advice. I did want to mention that you should see about meeting with the counselor and have him evaluated for Special Education or a 50?, 504 I think. From what I've heard the Special Education classification is better, assistance wise. My son is in Special Education and in my opinion and I feel that the teachers and pricipals are more envolved with him. Its good that they dont send him home everytime he gets in trouble but he cant always be in the office he is missing out on class instruction. Maybe if you let them know your concern about him being sent to the office and its effect on his learning. You should defintly read up on the Special Education programs and the laws that the schools are required to go by to ensure that you and your difficult child are getting to most out of the schools. Good luck. You are doing all you can do. Take it one day at a time and always remember the good days over the bad. [/QUOTE]
