Son has behaviour problems, school are fully aware as ive asked for support and he constantly disrupts the class on a daily basis.
He often refuses to go into school, so is late, this is nothing new, and as long as he does go in eventually even if 5/10 mins late then that's that. But today, he got to the classroom, so was on the school premises, just outside his class, doors close at a certain time and are locked, he refused to go in. Nothing I could say or do was working, his TA tried, said she would see what the teacher said.. came back and just said "it's your responsibility to get him into class not ours, I have to lock the door now." And did! Ok, I get that he's my responsibility obviously but I felt quite unsupported. I convinced him to go round to the main entrance with me, he did so I explained the situation and they tried to get him to go to class but he refused. He just wouldn't move or let me go. They called someone else down, and he started kicking and punching and thrashing himself about, again this is nothing new.
So, she restrained him. She got his arms and held him and told me to just go. So I did. I left. Feeling bloody awful. I saw another mum in town after and she had just come from there and said he was still kicking off in the main reception 😩. I left it a while and rang school and they said he had calmed down now and not to worry.
Is this the correct way to deal with it? From the schools point of view? I'm struggling with him, they know that. Whatever issues he has going on (school mentioned adhd) it's getting harder to get him into school. Just want an outsider view on the situation? Im suppose to be starting a new job soon but how can I do that if I'm going to be late constantly? So stressed 😩
