Summary
Frequent visits to the principal's office. Detentions. Suspensions. Expulsions. These are the established tools of school discipline for kids who don't abide by school rules, have a hard time getting along with other kids, don't seem to respect authority, don't seem interested in learning, and are disrupting the learning of their classmates. But there's a big problem with these strategies: They are ineffective for most of the students to whom they are applied.
I used to be in a school psychology program, but once I spoke with my supervisor about the actual job, I decided to drop out and never look back.
It was really heartbreaking to hear the lack of empathy when they talked about how they handle the 21-year-old neurodiverse kids.
But now, I've found my place working with a supportive homeschooling community that embraces neurodiversity. This book is exactly what I needed to apply my Functional Behavior Assessment training to a collaborative approach. It's the foundation of everything.
Definitely grab a copy of this book.
I found this book to be a valuable resource with practical advice and hands-on activities for effectively engaging with students who have behavioral challenges. It was so helpful that I even shared my recommendation with colleagues at my workplace.
