[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jeez, the sanctimommies are out in force tonight! :roll: How about you impose consequences on your children with dyslexia for reading slowly and on your kids with autism for humming and spinning? How about you stop excusing their behavior, eh? Go back to your first graders, sanctimommies. Adolescence will catch up to you know-it-alls soon enough. Put down your pitchforks and offer something constructive or go the eff away. [/quote] This is the Special Needs Board. Most of us have had children who were bullied or teased because they were a little different than the others. I think this explains why we are view this situation severely. Many of us have children with ADHD, who do not react this way in class. So we have difficulty believing that a child, ostensibly with a disorder that is familiar to us, can act in a way so extremely different from our children with the same disorder. Of course we know that ADHD presents differently for each patient, and we also know that it's TERRIBLE to blame a parent for the actions of their child. But... there is a doubt here. Why does this middle schooler not understand where the line is? Or if he does, is there any way to better control his impulsivity? Who knows? He might become the next great comic of our time! OP can tell him that, to keep his spirits up, but in a school environment, he MUST keep his mouth shut. His own safety is at stake. [/quote]
