[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the kind of situation that really pisses me off. As the parent of a child with special needs, it bothers me to no end when I hear stories like this about other parents with SN children basically antagonizing the school and administration. It's the child who suffered here. If the parent was indeed a few min away waiting for a repair man (really?) it doesn't take a few minutes to drive and get your kid and bring them home. Sounds to me like a parent trying to prove a point and test the school. [/quote]

It's not antagonizing the school. And I don't see how the child "suffered". [b]Actually, allowing the child to escape school by having the parent come and take them home would seem to be the worst outcome for the child.[/b] Instead, the school needs to learn to manage behavior better, or offer a different placement.[/quote]

I agree. OP never explains how she knew all the details (OP works at the school?) but somehow OP had all the inside dope with NO mention of what the IEP/504 plan says is to be done if this kid with SN does not go to class, leaves the building, etc etc. If the kids SN status had something to do with the behavior, there should be a plan. If it had nothing to do with the behavior, no reason to even mention it.

Seems to me OP has a role in the school and also thinks this "SN" stuff is really all a) because of crappy parents or b) involves kids who really should be "somewhere else"[/quote]
