[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is your child in a special ed classroom?

What do you do when he behaves this way?[/quote]

We will ignore him but when it get out of hand we hold his hands until he stops. And then sit him alone  on the couch and tell him things like soft touches and that we do not bite or pinch others it's hurts. [/quote]

Respectfully, OP, I think that he's outgrown these methods.  These are the methods you use on a young toddler.  Now he needs something like a sticker chart for good behavior.  A reward system that he can see -- Today Larlo did not head butt anyone!  He got a sticker!  Three stickers means a trip to the splash park!  Can you count how many stickers

Develop mentally he's 15 months old. He's been seen by a behavior health specialist for a couple months now. I will try this method but like I mentioned before since the special education placement his not interested in learning new things. When I sit with him to teach him something new he becomes very frustrated because it something he doesn't want to participate in. I could sit with a book with him and he loves it but that's about it. PECS cards and other things he'll throw across the room and become frustrated.[/quote]

All human beings respond to rewards, OP.  If his rewards are books, then set him up for that.  He sounds bored and frustrated and he's learned how to act out.  I don't know if he's learned that in school and I'm not sure it really matters.[/quote]
