[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 578471, member: 11791"] I think you're caught between a rock and a hard place on this one. We never [I]started[/I] the "before/after school care" thing in the first place for a long list of reasons (some just personal preference), but we learned quickly that... we were glad we went that way. Because... 6 hours of school time was already too much. We couldn't even stop and do shopping on the way home from school... even [I]that[/I] was too much. But. J is already in after-care. And... J [I]loves[/I] his after-care. Having him come home and just be with [I]you[/I] isn't the answer either. And yet... yes, he will be some combo of overtired, overstimulated, and starving. Add in the fact that he only has a few kids that he can click with - and this last boy seems to be one of them... I kind of know where J is coming from. The only one that you [I]might[/I] be able to do something about is the "starving". [/QUOTE]
