[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why wouldn't Maddux take a child with tantrums or willfulness due to anxiety? I know several kids who have regular tantrums who went to Maddux recently and did great there. Their tantrums are short-lived, though, so it depends on what you mean by tantrum. If it's some stomping around, making faces and crying for a few minutes that might be okay. A full on screaming fit would work.[/quote]

The op said she does okay if someone is right there helping.  Maddux won't do that.  Auburn or diener won't.  There are limited options for privates.  Eventually she may not need this, but she probably wouldn't make it through a school visit.[/quote]

Auburn camp does exactly that for my kid, and they then accepted her for the school although we chose to stick with public instead.

Any school that caters to ASD has to accept at least some level of tantrums or they would have no students.  An ADHD/Anxiety kid will have similar issues and usually will respond to the same behavioral supports as ASD kids.[/quote]

Maddux won't do a one on one.  Auburn camp might and help a child transition to school through fading this.  Behavioral supports are different than needing a one-on-one.[/quote]
