[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he is disciplined at school, he is usually not disciplined at home. The school recommends this -- home should be a place he's safe and comfortable, and not one where he's getting in trouble for things he's already been punished for. We do discuss the incident and what he could have done differently. Exceptions are made, and[b] he'll lose screen time, when he does really bad things like pulling the fire alarm, attacking a teacher, or running away from school. [/quote][/b] Wow. Attacking a teacher and running away from school? And the kid then 'loses screen time'? I'd say you need to come up with more serious consequences.[/quote] I have a special needs child who is already in a specialized program due to his behavior. His needs and behavior may be unique due to his medical diagnosis, but the discipline process (not re-punishing him, but rather discussing and helping him learn better behavior) can be applied just as appropriately to a neurotypical child. This is the approach recommended by a number of developmental specialists for a child his age. [/quote]
