[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 420001, member: 3444"] TM, easy child is turning 12 -- going on 20 I think some days, though not because of the way she dresses or her interests (boys are still idiots in her opinion, lol). Forgot to mention difficult child 2's designation is being changed from OHI to ED, which I think gives more creedance to the whole IEP package in some people's minds. I don't really care what they call it, as long as he gets the help he needs. difficult child 1 is still in the independent study program and overall is doing pretty well. It's the time management that gets him, especially now that he's got LAX games to juggle with everything else. Consequently the past two weeks he's procrastinated himself into a corner with the work. There's only so much I can do for him with reminders and gentle nagging, and he's acknowledged that, so hopefully he's learning and will not put things off this next week. He's got one more week of L.A. and then he's done with that subject for the year. He started geometry last week and has 8 more weeks to go. Next week he gets to start Drivers Ed (which has not been offered in the general ed schools for YEARS). He's also taking French 1 and LAX at his home high school, and that is going just fine. We had him evaluated for services at the home high school, but because he's no longer depressed and having the physical problems he had four months ago, the tests today just don't support him getting an IEP, so the 504 plan stays. We still don't know if he'll transition back to the regular high school in the fall or stay where he's at. He registered for both, so we'll see how the year wraps up and decide later in the summer. Donkey Mama, no camping trip planned, but we are heading north at the end of June to scatter my dad's ashes. Along with those of three other siblings! My mom said she's bringing a bottle of good scotch and drinking a toast to all of them when it's done. :rofl: She's doing really well this past year. I've been helping her tag stuff for garage sales as she goes through the enormous amount of computer, lapidary, astronomy, electronic, office supplies, clothing, and you-name-it junk my dad hoarded. Her house is getting bigger by the day as we get rid of 40+ years of accumulation. That's about it for now. Time to start the morning taxi and get people where they need to be today! Enjoy the day, everyone! [/QUOTE]
