Parent with Autism
I work in a self contained classroom for students with the most extensive support needs. I have been struggling this year with a parent who is on the spectrum and has no idea they’re on the spectrum! Parent does not understand why their child is not in general education full time. This student takes the most of my time out of all 9 of my kids. He’s not a behavioral issue, he just needs a lot of constant support. Parent doesn’t understand that that is not possible outside my classroom and doesn’t understand why their kid can’t be “with the normal kids more”. I have explained and explained and given examples and shown data and nothing is getting through!!! What else can I do????
