At any time we were talking about important stuff (say IEP meetings or the like) I was told to be quiet, and the one thing I ever received a failing grade on (week 2 mind you) was due to me not being quiet during a parent-teacher conference. I was being criticized for not talking right during breaks when the teachers were talking about their kids or their weekend plans. The rest of the time I did as I was told and kept my mouth shut. Of course then there is the issue with stimming during meetings, but honestly, I just can't help that.
