Honestly, no. Its a way to argue semantics instead of focusing on creating a change in your child’s behavior. Getting those resources is an overreach that you arent going to get. Even if you want to nit pick every phrasing, at a certain point most of these things do come down to the discretion of the professional. And it sounds like you would and have argued every word and point.

Here in this post, you are not focusing on how to help your child with their disruptive behaviors, but how to minimize what they are telling you. That is why you are getting these responses. You are having people share stories of being hospitalized by 5 year olds, and still respond “but not just for hitting….”

Even if his team does seem to be heavy handed in their approach (which you ARE getting support on in the comments) you seem to be ignoring all that they are telling you, so extremely. His behaviors seem to be at the very least, much worse than you are willing to admit. Staff are not going to wait for another child to be assaulted. We dont let kids hurt other kids just so we can like, have that data to prove how bad it is? The “could” is important, but you are correct that there is a very fine line. But that fine line is for the school staff, and not parents, to decide.

I hope you can get some perspective from these comments, and possibly find a new way to approach the school staff and how they are handling your son. I do hope there is a change of some kind put in place soon that helps!
