[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's in a special ed classroom for children with behavior problems. All the children can talk but have behavior problems. He's the only child with Down syndrome and the only 3 year old. The other children's are 4 to 6. It's the wrong placement for him. [/quote] He is in the wrong placement. Down Syndrome and behavioral issues are very different needs. He will pick up on their behavior if that is all he knows and is exposed to.[/quote] A kid can pick up behaviors any where. I don't think there's enough info to know if it's the wrong placement. It's also much easier said than done. Placements aren't glass slippers with the perfect fit. Programs were designed for the masses, so nothing is a perfect fit. This kid sounds completely zonked at the end of his day and has few ways to express his frustrations.[/quote]
