[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 588254, member: 14557"] With that I can so sympathize. Mine is luckily now adult and currently out of school, taking gap years to try to pursue his sport dreams, but his school years were horrible. And unfortunately there was never a good solution. Or well, moving three hours away from his school, when he was 17, studying everything independently and only going school once a month to take exams did work in the end. Mine didn't only arrange his way out from class, he literally run away from school (even outrunning his aide when he had one), was several time looked by police because of that, once a river was drag and searched because he was missing and not to be found. There was times he was truant much more than at school. It was simply horrible and I certainly don't have answers how to solve school issues. I do have laundry list of what not to do, though. And buckets full of sympathy. Do your area have advocates or support groups for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/ADHD/other special needs-families? That could be a possible way to find out what programs and resources are available in your area and schools. It isn't uncommon for schools not really volunteer all that information. Also some experience based information from those programs is never bad thing to hear. At times things look very different in paper than in class room... [/QUOTE]
