[QUOTE="ksm, post: 488602, member: 12511"] OK, I have had a few converstations with the school nurse about difficult child reqesting tylenol for headaches several times a week. Well, this weekend after a meltdown, difficult child told me that there are a group of girls that are bullying her. I guess dating back to the first week of school, one girl said "your voice is so irritating it sounds like a puppy is being killed" Now a group of girls are calling her The Puppy Killer. I shared that last year, when we had problems, I talked to the 7th grade counselor and before the day was over, difficult child and several girls were called to her office. I didn't expect her to have a one on one... I thought she would talk to difficult child, and give her ways to handle things. So difficult child doesn't want to repeat that - it just made things worse the rest of the year - and the girls would only do it when no adults were around. Then I talked to the school counselor (mentioned the above info) and told her that we need help - like a 504 or IEP plan. That she is struggling in school, and I have been tyring to get help since 4th grade. She said that we need to wait until we get the school testing done - and she saw the school psychologist today and psychiatrist said she hadn't received my letter. I am royally ticked. I explained that I hand delivered it to her office last week! So, counselor asked me to email her and attach the letter. I did. Then I made 3 copies, took two to the school - one for the counselor, one for the psychiatrist. Then I drove over to the psychiatrist office, left ANOTHER letter there. Then I had the secretary give me a written note that I had brought the letter in, dated and signed the note that I am now keeping. Then I emailed the psychiatrist, attached the letter, and gave her a small vent that my requests for help has been ignored for the last 4 years. That the school, the mental health agency, and the insurance provider have all dragged their feet, and now we are all waiting for school testing. KSM [/QUOTE]
