[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher, Calm down. You are upset at the wrong people. The problem is your school's administration. There are a lot of things they can do beyond the IEP process. You need to put a note into writing to your principal and cc the special needs office for your district. Explain the situation and tell them you need additional staffing to help with this issue and you need a consultation from a behavioral specialist who can help you with strategies to manage the child's behavior.

You should also look at what YOU are doing to trigger the behaviors if anything. I am not saying you are doing something wrong but you might be inadvertently upsetting the child.

Lastly, try to have some empathy. Your post comes off sounding kind of crazy. What kind of teacher would sue parents?[/quote]

No. The teacher, like everyone else, deserves a safe work environment. If this child is injuring others, whether they are teachers or other kids, he needs to be put in a more appropriate environment, probably a self-contained class.[/quote]

Your ignorance and prejudice is showing. You don't know what is going on with that child. If the parents are not willing to start the IEP process it could mean the parents are in denial and possibly in the wrong, or that they know something you don't know about how the teacher is dealing with their child that and that they don't trust her or the school.

I have been a teacher for many years and there are always two sides to the story. I have no reason to believe OP has created this situation but I have seen teachers who have.[/quote]
