On Sunday morning things were so different. Monday brought a new set of troubles! Actually, the home troubles blossomed into school ones when our boy took IT out during a mainstreamed class. While I was at work, the phone rang at home and no-one had the guts to say why I had to call them back. Of course it was late so I telephoned the administrator and got my answer.
He doesn't acknowlege why he did it, only repeats when. He fell short of tellling and that's all we want to know.
PS: Did anyone read about the woman in England who torched herself and disabled daughter in a car? She was being harrassed by youths and couldn't take it anymore. She left a 16 year old boy to fend for himself.


I'm fixing to start getting
I'm fixing to start getting that when my 5 year old is to be mainstreemed. He can't keep his hands off his junk no matter what.
If someone takes their sweater off, he see's it as a que that you can take all your clothes off and begins stripping to bare butt.
People think it's funny now but he will get older and then it won't be funny at all. Maybe they will grow out of it. God I hope so.
That is sad to hear(mother in england). I feel bad for the teenager that has to fend for himself. Wish I had run into these youths, the story would be the other way around.

Mainstreaming is very hard
Mainstreaming is very hard for kids with autism We gave up when our son was 9 and found a special needs school (that could not kick him out because of his behavior ). The key to good mainstreaming is supportive staff and a teacher who will accept your child. We just got tired of fighting and being called every day to pick him up from school. I had one teacher state that my son was evil and that she did not go into special education. He was not learning and I feel he knew he was not being accepted. He spent one whole year with an aide who was teaching him how to tie his shoes. He was kicked out of first grade for throwing his shoes at her. I did not care if he could tie his shoes thank goodness for velco I just wanted him to be happy and loved for who he was. Good luck and stand your ground for your child to get what ever he needs
No i didnt hear that one,
