My son is only 5 and with the introduction of a new school and ta was doing great..till last week when he is now starting to smack and pinch whenever work time is enforced I.e sitting at a desk or lunch time - sitting down.
The ta has given up. I have given up. After coming up with numerous strategies, the salt privately going in, the OT privately going in, me becoming bankrupt in the process I'm now at a loss.
We tried positive motivators aba style.
There's nothing left.
We have a special school place for sept, and it's not an option to home school till then, so what the hell do I do?
I think I'm just at the point where I actually give up. I just allow the school to babysit him/ stim all day.
It's making me cry thinking about it.
After tying up the statement with solicitors and tribunals, he has salt ot a specific ta but she just can't control him.
I was asked if he smacks at home- short answer, no, one look from me and that hand goes.
I don't even know what I'm asking for, I just had to get it down.
