[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s always worth asking the kid what is running through their minds while at school. You have to do this when all is calm and you’re free to cuddle up somewhere and just ask and listen without correcting or judging. After a few times of this safe opportunity, you might hear themes emerging, like he hates sitting in chairs so much or he hates being last in line, or he feels he never gets a chance with some toy. Ask him how his engine feels inside him at school. Is it too fast, or just right, or too slow? Ask him when at school his engine has to be slowed down and when it’s okay to be fast. Ask him who his favorite teacher is and why. I would also ask the director or someone on staff with training in child development to do a classroom observation to see if there are triggers they notice. [/quote]
