[QUOTE="ShakespeareMamaX, post: 131060, member: 3861"] I just sent this to another poster. It has many resources (hopefully for your state) and I'm hoping someone will be able to help you. Churches are good places to go, too, if even for the emotional support. When I had to keep leaving my job for my difficult child, I got on FMLA (family medical leave act). i don't know if the laws are different in your state, but this prevents you from being fired while having to leave to tend to any medical needs that come up during working hours. I can relate with karate fears as it intimidates me to send my difficult child to any program given he had gone to gymnastics, but kept getting sent out for misbehavior (you're BRAVE for having yours swim!). Someone had talked to me, though, about karate and gave me some insight on it. As I'm sure you know, Karate comes with discipline and, sometimes, if you explain to the teacher what's going on with your difficult child before enrolling her, they may be able to target these behaviors into constructive outlets in class. Try a trial run (so you don't waste your money). Many places offer 2 week trials or so and that should be sufficient time as to whether she can handle it or not. I wish you much luck and keep us posted! <3 [/QUOTE]
