[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any behavioral specialist will tell you that the absolute last thing you want to do is reward and positively reinforce this behavior (refusing to leave playground) by calling a parent to come pick him up! That's so stupid.

The parent is probably fed up dealing with the incompetent school staff. Why on EART would they call the police in a situation where everyone was safe and fine???[/quote]

+1.  Worst idea ever to reward school refusal by calling parent to come and pick up child.

Can’t even believe that was an option.

There is no way that every single warm adult body in school was occupied with something more important than this problem.  There are principal, vice principals, counselors, teachers with planning periods, sped teachers and staff, all of whom can drop other priorities to pitch in and help in emergency. [/quote]

This. I have seen a situation where the principal, vice principal and the teacher went out to try to get a kindergartener off the playground, while an aide stayed with the class.

This school sounds like it handled this situation terribly. [/quote]
