I am a little upset right now and i don't even know if i should be or not. My son attends a special education school. He has many problems and they all know this. anyway, he was written up on the bus yesterday for "assulting the bus monitor". naturally, i was very angry when i read that. my son has gone through ALOT lately. we had to move back in with my mother, he won't have his father around until August 2004, he no longer has his normal therapist (they gave him a different one, but my son is funny about things like that. he won't open up to anyone he doesn't trust and he has had the same therapist for 3 years) due to his medications, he has gained alot of weight over the past month. so much so that i had to take what money i had and buy him new jeans because none of his fit anymore, but he is very uncomfortable about that. anyway, i asked him what happened and he told me that the bus monitor was playing around with the kids pretending to flick their noses, but not touching them. well, my son did it back to him and accidentally flicked his nose. now my son can get into some trouble at times and has had his share of detentions...but he is not a lier. he is always honest about what happens when he gets in trouble. but he was very upset about what the bus people said. in all honesty, his father got into some trouble and is in jail until august (for a traffic thing). so my son knows the basics on what "assult" means. anyway, part of me thinks the bus company went a little over board saying he "assulted the bus monitor". especially when the bus monitor was getting the kids going. it just gets me angry that they are labeling my son as violent. he may be hard to handle at times...but he is NEVER violent. i dont know if i should call the bus company and ask them about it. it won't do any good, i know, because they already said the bus monitor wasn't doing anything. that my son just "punched him in the nose". it just get's me angry because i know my son. i know he is not violent and would never hit an adult like that. but it is their word against his. he has just been through so much lately that this is just adding to it. he was really upset about it. and, like i said, i know my son. i know when he is lying and i know he would never hit an adult. i just don't know what to do about this situation. what would you all do if it was your child? any advice is welcome. thank you so much.
