[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is absolutely a legal way to physically remove a disruptive kid.  But there is paperwork, regulations, etc.  And for good reason—someone transporting a kid needs appropriate training so that no one gets injured.  OP’s situation is clearly not following guidelines.

You have way too much faith in the training.  The reason for the rules (and the training) isn't safety it's liability.[/quote]

It’s both.[/quote]

It's a one day class[/quote]

One day isn’t enough. I’m trained in this and the school I trained at we got 2 weeks initial training (crisis deescalation & physical intervention training) and 2-3 days retraining every 6 months. Then another 2 weeks up front learning about legalities & paperwork, behavior plans, etc- all the things that go along with it. After that we had to shadow for2-4 weeks before ever being left “in charge” of a child that exhibited problem behaviors. Also everyone in the school had the same training, even the secretaries. You could yell and 5 people would be at your side in under 30 s.  I would NEVER take a job that only provided 1 day training- that shows me nobody in that setting has the skills or knowledge to handle the situation or have your back when you need it. That’s just setting yourself & the child up for injury and creating liability for yourself. Also very likely you have a bunch of administrators that won’t have your back if you have to make crisis level decisions. No wonder they can’t get qualified teachers. [/quote]
