[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That was me as an unmedicated ADHD kid. It is the teacher’s job to ensure a functional learning environment for the entire class. It is your job to help him reframe the arrangement into a positive and mitigate the harm to his self esteem. [b]You can’t expect the teacher to sacrifice other children’s learning for him[/b]. That’s not fair or reasonable to anyone.[/quote]

That's the whole point of FAPE. He just needs the diagnosis. [/quote]

An IEP can get the child goals , but does not allow the child to just disrupt others all day.[/quote]

Except it does. These kids are ruining school for everyone else - put them in the self contained room where they belong.[/quote]

A kid distracting himself and other kids by talking too much does not belong in a self contained classroom. They need to sit someplace where they are not distracting other kids. The Teacher and parents should be working together to figure out how to stop the talking and distractions. It is annoying but it is not dangerous and is pretty common for Teachers to have to deal with. Granted, it’s easier if the parents are working with the Teacher and it doesn’t sound like that is happening with this child. The OP makes it sound like she has heard from the Teacher regularly about the talking and it finally escalated enough that the boy was moved to sit by himself next to the Teachers desk. Moms response is not to fix the issue but to worry about her kids self esteem.

A kid throwing things, hitting, kicking, biting, or destroying the classroom belongs in a self contained classroom.

Op sounds like she has not disciplined the child. If she did, he would have stopped disrupting class and wouldn’t have to sit next to the teacher.

I have a well behaved kindergarten daughter. She has a kid at her table who gets and iPad and doesn’t listen to the teacher. Everyday I ask her how her day is and most of what she tells me is about all the bad things this boys at her table does. I am sure he has some sort of learning disability since he gets and iPad. She said he gets an iPad so he can be quiet. My daughter seems to still be learning.[/quote]

Gawd you are ignorant and vile. Brag some more to us about your perfect girl child who shouldn't have to be around this loser. [/quote]

PP's daughter isn't perfect, she's judgmental and gossipy. And PP probably gives her positive feedback for this behavior, so she likely also embellishes and lies a lot about it (in a small child way). We see this a lot. Had a parent come in complaining that there was a little boy in my class who hit people every day and demanded he be removed. How did Mom know? Her daughter told her so, every day. None of it ever happened. I convinced the mom to arrange a playdate with the accused boy. Sweet kid, never hit anyone. Mom apologized after the playdate.[/quote]

Every single day when I pick up my daughter from school, I ask her how her day is. This was the same every day in preschool and now kindergarten. At her preschool, she would talk about playing with her friends, songs they sang, art, etc. in kindergarten, the most memorable things that happened during the day is this disruptive boy. My kid is not lying or embellishing.

I have two sons. We have had disruptive kids in their classes as well. I never mention the kids to anyone. When my boys were younger, I would make them invite the disruptive kid to birthdays.

Don’t blame me for some other kid’s bad behavior. My good friend’s friendship is getting ruined over a mutual friend’s poorly behaved son. Their kids are in same class. I believe the boy has ADHD. My mutual friend doesn’t care why he is bad. She doesn’t want them in her house or near her daughter. [/quote]
