[QUOTE="MyHrt31, post: 256865, member: 6666"] Thanks Susie :happy: The bad thing about this school district is, the staff/teachers/counselors, etc can do no wrong. Its all the kids fault and of course, the parent who needs "parenting classes through the DA's office". I've even agreed to go to these classes to prove that I am doing all I can with him. My son will never be "healed" and he will not change overnight. They have counselors at this "behavioral school" that are supposed to be there to help. The only times he sees these counselors are when he's in trouble. Hm.... so if this kid supposedly does everything "for attention" and the only time he sees the very person who is supposed to help him cope with his problems is when he does get in trouble.. than maybe he [I]is[/I] trying to get attention. He wants the one on one skills that the counselors provide him but if they only do it when he's in trouble, what's that teach him? He needs much more than what that school can offer him. I considered pulling him out and homeschooling but I can't afford it. I can't even find someone to watch him so I can put him on homebound (this may change soon though because a girl down the street from us is looking for a job). I just don't know what else to do. His anxieties about school are HORRIBLE. He even mentioned not eating in the cafeteria because the other kids call him fat. When I mentioned this, the principal rolled her eyes and said, "He's not as innocent as he would like for you to believe". You guys are really helping me because I wasn't sure if I was justified in feeling IRRITATED about this whole situation. I even have a stomach ulcer developing because of all the stress! :knockedout: [/QUOTE]
