But there is a big difference between confining someone so you don't have to deal with the behaviors and putting someone in a safety device so they don't get injured.
I agree with PP, about having to shadow him and to remove the things that are dangerous or unsafe for him, this includes the sign in/out sheet and access to the bathroom.
Create an environment where the choices he has are age appropriate and safe. No crayons out, no toys or items he has the chance to destroy within reach and no access to the table where other children are working.
I understand and sympathize with you about a kid like that....my own son was a walker at 6.5 months old and was lovingly called "Godzilla" as he could destroy an entire room within minutes if anyone took their eyes off him. He required continuous hand holding and shadowing until he was close to 2.5-3 yrs old.
