[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here-- I would be interested in hearing how 9:05 got the hitting and biting to stop as well.

About physical restraint in school---- would they restrain my child for having a tantrum?  He will lay on the floor and kick but at the floor not necessarily a person.  Is the need for physical restraint what separates the need to go to Lourie from other SN or inclusive schools?[/quote]

It depends on the jurisdiction and its policies, or if you are referring to a non-public, it depends on the school.  Any non-public special ed school that is set up to deal with behavioral issues is going to have a policy (and training) on restraint and seclusion.

But let's take the example of your son laying on the floor and kicking it.  If he is told to stop and does not, depending on the school, he can be picked up and "transported" to the quiet room.  If he acts out further and they find they cannot transport him, they may choose to immobilize him (basically hold him down until he calms down).  They are trained to not do this in a harmful way.
