[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was a mistake for you to post this out if the s/n forum. A lot of the same old same old  with sn parents must be not disciplining their kids because they are a kid with behavior issues crap.

You people are nasty and should be ashamed of yourselves.

Absolutely they are not. I'm a teacher and have worked with special needs kids. Twelve year old kids are big. If they can be violent due to special needs, this needs to be explicitly dealt with so the child is with adults that are specially trained. The fact this poster asked WWYD shows the poster has not properly dealt with this issue. If a twelve year old child is hitting, and this is expected due to previous experience with this child, then it shouldn't be a surprise by the parent on how to handle this issue.

It sounds like this child is not high special needs. Just because certain special needs behaviors are present does not excuse violence by this child. Yes, the child needs to be disciplined. Let me tell you, this would not be tolerated in a public school. If a twelve year old is hitting due to a perceived special need, they would be moved from any mainstream classes. OP needs to deal with this so this child understands this is a full stop no. We've received no information from OP to imply this child is high special needs to the point of not understanding this. If OP doesn't deal with this, it is going to be worse for this child because someone else will, whether it's the public school system or whoever else. These excuses are exactly why it's so difficult to fill special needs positions in schools and why people leave the teaching profession because so many parents bury their head in the sand. [/quote]

NOBODY EXCUSED IT DUMB*SS. Seriously. You sound like a teacher with no understanding of SN behaviors. Sadly, not surprising. [/quote]

Exactly.
Are you one of those teachers with ‘special training’ who end up restraining an autistic kid in the hallway in a mailbag for a few hours? Bring in security and have the kid brought to a locked room for a few hours every day? 
Shuttle the kid right out of regular Ed for any misbehavior , likely due in part to your own lack of intelligence in dealing with a SN child - sounds great. It’s why most people go into teaching, right? [/quote]
