[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are not doing your child any favors by trying to "accommodate" everything in their lives that causes them discomfort or challenge. Resilience should be a goal. [/quote] +1. There is no way to get around the weapons check line so he has to get used to it. I guess you could fight for an accommodation that he be allowed to come late every day - but to what end? If you have to do this please consult with a therapist trained in anxiety to come up with a plan to get him to tolerate standing in line. [/quote] I agree that coming in late is not a long-term solution. I also disagree that you should just throw them in and make them “deal.” Talk to your team about scaffolding though and how to build up distress tolerance if possible. I would think you aren’t the first to encounter this [/quote]
