[quote=Anonymous]I don't think testing through the school will reveal much if his issues are not academic, and you are unlikely to get the services he needs from an IEP. If he wants to change, maybe look into arfid treatment/feeding therapy, occupational therapy for sensory issues, and ways to make eating a hygiene easier (perhaps there's a kind of soap, washcloth, toothpaste, mouthwash, etc that is more tolerable?). Cognitive behavioral therapy might be worth a try too. If he wants to go the testing and medication route that's an option if insurance will cover or you can pay out of pocket. At his age, he really needs to buy in to anything. If he wants to stay at TJ, great. If going to his home school will reduce his stress or give him more time to work on his sensory/mental health issues and he wants that, I would encourage him. [/quote]
