My son's school also views him as trouble because they don't understand him or how to work with him. And they say they are perfectly willing to work with us -- as long as working with us means no extra money or effort expended by them!

He was always being picked on and when he defended himself, he was in trouble.<BR/><BR/>I was "in to it" with everyone all the time and I was always getting notes and phone calls--I hated it!A Bishops Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07614782576567905819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1617253087395608203.post-90096329081025289062007-12-22T09:50:00.000-05:002007-12-22T09:50:00.000-05:00I am glad this went well. I became angry reading ...I am glad this went well. I became angry reading that they were limiting your time in discussing your son. You never should feel pressured to rush through an IEP meeting. You don't have to sign at the end either. If they won't take the time to listen you don't have to sign. They do not like it when a parent won't sign. I have had to do that a few times and boy were they upset. But, hey...you are the parent and it is your meeting, not just theirs.<BR/><BR/>It is so hard when your child is not "clicking" with a teacher. We have had this problem twice and it made for very tough years. Will he have a different teacher next year?<BR/><BR/>A sensory diet is great. These were always helpful for my daughter, when they actually follwed through with them.<BR/><BR/>Sounds like you are on the right track. Give yourself a special treat for your hard work!Marla https://www.blogger.com/profile/03926898159751613267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1617253087395608203.post-66137220697319579172007-12-22T02:58:00.000-05:002007-12-22T02:58:00.000-05:00Well done for being a pain in the arse!!!Seriously...Well done for being a pain in the arse!!!<BR/>Seriously though, it sounds as though you have paved the way for an excellent start in the schools education. <BR/>Research i have also found makes a huge difference. They actually realise we are not just over protective parents but we actually know what we are talking about!Casdokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03497897393162856190noreply@blogger.com
