[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like his behavior is targeting others to get a laugh at their expense. That isn't being a class clown. It is behavior that calls for discipline. I don't understand why you would say it is dngerous for your son.[/quote] Parents of kids with special needs know very well that schools can indeed be profoundly dangerous places for their kids just because they may have a very hard time understanding/following norms--written AND unwritten rules--even though they need to learn/develop the capacity to do so. Sometimes people delivering punishment will say "He needs to learn . . ." Yes, exactly. And this may be a kid for whom some kinds of learning, including social learning, needs to be delivered in an individualized way. [/quote]
