2. Involve Parents
At some point things will become more than just a little difficult. You will need to involve parents and work out a plan together to overcome the outbursts and anxiety. Don’t come to them with a plan, come to them with a desire to discuss a plan. Work out something as a team that can be implemented at home and at school and make sure you are both working towards that common goal. Use kid gloves with the parents as this is their child and if you say the wrong things they may take offense. Talk about the positives and what you have worked on so far with them, then ask them for advice to help you get better. Then move the conversation to a plan that they are bought in on. This will ensure that they did their job as parents, even if you had to guide them to the correct conclusion.
