Home ABA for middle schooler

[Guest guest]

Hi list

Just had an exhausting IEP meeting and would like to see if there is any

information out there to support having some home programming for a child

who is in middle school. The consultant hired by the district kept

talking about it being " unusual " and of course I wanted to bite him! Here

is a guy I know started out doing home programs for families and now is

helping a district keep us from having some home ABA! All I want is a few

hours a week for some more intensive social skills training.........not

asking for a 40 hour DTT program! I am in school and I work, my husband

works and we have two other kids, one who also has a disability, so as

much as I would love to implement it and run it myself, I cannot. Anyone

have some advice or documentation or anything?? Thanks in advance!
