difficult child 2 is in a therapeutic school and is in full on defiant mode. The school is unable to handle him and I don't know what to ask for in way of help. He needs the therapy, but they think he needs to be in a different school that emphasizes behavior modification. I am not pleased with the one that difficult child 1 is in so I am not up for moving difficult child 2 to the same kind of setting.
Also, difficult child 2 is learning that if he acts defiant, eventually the school will give up on him and move him somewhere else (this is his 3rd school in 2 years). He walks out of the classrooms, disrupts his classes and other classes and refuses to do any school work at all. They have no consequences for him and nothing I do or say is getting through either.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should be asking for that might help in these behaviors? A separate classroom, a one on one aide, duct tape (just kidding) or what?
