Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 And then, in 10 minutes she might be absolutely fine. Boy is this my Alyssa. At this time we call her Sybil. One minute she's angry, shutting down, refusing to respond, etc and I usually send her to her room to calm herself down and reboot herself. Usually (not always but mostly) 5-10 minutes later she comes down and does exactly what was asked as if nothing happened 5 minutes ago. I've tried to tell her teachers that the more they push her to do something, the more resistant she becomes. If they would just let her take 5 minutes to herself, most times she'd be fine. They insist she is being defiant and stubborn. So I copied the " Stubborn Is As Stubborn Does " and gave it out at her last IEP meeting. Not that it'll do any good, but her Psychologist hadn't seen it and was impressed with it.
