3 year old suspended
Just to give a little context my son has a speech delay. He’s been evaluated by a psychologist and it was determined that he is very self directed.
My son was suspended from day care for one week because he runs away from his teachers and they’re concerned for his safety. I’m very upset I constantly get complaints from his teacher. Things like “he didnt want to wake up from his nap” “he didn’t want me to change his diaper” “he didn’t want to stay at his center” “he didn’t want to leave the playground” I rarely get any good feedback.
They truly make me feel like my son is a menace and by no means am I saying that my son is angel. But I feel like they don’t want to deal with him, the don’t want to make any accommodations to help him.
I personally work as a teachers aid in an integrated classroom so I completely understand what it takes to work with children who learn differently.
I feel like it’s inappropriate for them to have him stay home for week, I also think it’s detrimental to take him out of his routine.
Anyway I just wanted to see if anyone has gone through the same thing. Or if anyone has any advice or insight. Do we think this is being handled appropriately? If it wasn’t the end of the school year I would find a different environment for him but he will definitely be going to a different place for next year.
