[quote=Anonymous]This was a very weird thing for them to do. Suppose a child with classical autism or a child with psychosis or severe anxiety had thrown the tape away because of intense fears or a child who was simply having a bad episode of acting out. Forcing the child to apologize is not appropriate and doesn't deal with the action. It's like they think it must have been a prank. "Oh, let's put the tape in the toilet, ha ha ha. Wheeee!" They can't imagine a situation in which children act out of fears, anxieties, or psychosis rather than out of misbehavior. I think you need to speak to them. I would say something like "Larla and Larlo, Margaret did not put the tape in the toilet. But if she had, we need to deal with it according to her treatment plan."[/quote]
