[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suggest you speak with your daughter and explain to her that her behavior is disrespectful. She should apologize to her teachers and make more effort not to talk during class. Ask her to handle the situation since she created it [/quote]
She knows she shouldn’t be talking in class, and often does apologize, but[b] she can’t control it. [/b]I’ve thought about asking them to make her sit somewhere away from friends for the next few weeks, because this will only get worse, but only one of her classes has assigned seating.[/quote]

At 16? This is really your attitude here? I know various special needs and disabilities can make impulse control more difficult - but surely she should be at least focusing on practicing the skill. Making excuses for her won't help.

Do you think there are consequences you could implement that would stand a realistic chance of modifying her behavior? In addition to the phone calls being apparently very inconvenient for you what she is doing is also harmful to (1) her education & (2) the classroom experience of the other students. Everyone loses here; something clearly needs to change.

Does she have an iep/504 and if so does it address how the school deals with disciplinary issues for her? Are they following it? Does it need to be modified in some way to be more effective?[/quote]
