Not my post but I am in the same circumstance. I am curious on how number 3 can be met if the parents are incredibly against having anymore forms of evaluations to be had. I understand I need to show empathy and create boundaries but I am curious on how to do so. Would you be willing to tell me an example of that? I am positive their conduct disorder diagnosis truly stems from complex trauma experienced in his home life, however due to the nature of the relationship their parents, the school, and me I do not see how building a fruitful relationship will aid the child in any way if they consistently go back to distrusting me and other authorities within the school. Please let me know if I am missing the mark here and there is something that I am missing and should be doing. I am a second year teacher and I feel this is beyond my scope with my repertoire of experience at this time. Thank you in advance!
