[quote=Anonymous]00:23 here. Whether he gets a diagnosis or not, it's sounds like you need to address the hitting. I would imagine the school could add a behavioral goal even without a diagnosis if this is a chronic problem. If it's not an ongoing problem and just happened a few isolated times, it may not be necessary to add a goal. The psychologist who you're meeting with may have some suggestions, but I would consider additional OT therapy outside of school to help him learn to regulate himself in the short term. Private OT practices can address more than what can be provides in school. If behavioral problems are emerging, testing now might be helpful to determine why. Kids hit for various reasons--regulatory, impulse control, anxiety, frustration from inability to express themselves b/c of a speech delay. I would send all the original reports that you have ahead of time to the psychologist as well. [/quote]
