For all you know he could be functioning like a 5 year old when it comes to certain behaviors. From M.: But, Gail, a 5 year old would probably not put a person in the hospital. A 15 year old might. Just because he seems like a 5-yr-old in a 15-yr-old body doesn't reduce the damage he could cause. I repeat that no one in any job should be subjected to being a human punching bag. If we don't train our kids, soon there will be *no one* willing to work with them. Cheers, M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
