[QUOTE="WearyWoman, post: 386077"] Allan - I would love for JT to be plugged into some services that way, especially empathy training or social skills. We've tried. He just doesn't seem to qualify. For example, his ADHD does not qualify as "other health impaired" unless it impacts his academic functioning, and the school has determined it does not. I'm sure a lot of kids with invisible disabilities are slipping through the cracks. Wiped Out - We do believe JT about what was said. He told us only after we asked and after he'd already admitted to his mistakes and dealing with the consequences. For all of his otherwise intelligent abilities, JT rarely if ever covers up anything. He doesn't come up with great excuses or try to hide evidence. In fact, he would make a pretty bad criminal that way. That's also why he always gets caught. husband is going to call the principal tomorrow to discuss two issues - the words of the other boy's dad/teacher (we learned he actually repeated the beating up JT thing several times in different ways during the conversation), and the principal's threats of calling the police on JT even if some other kid causes a problem. We'll see how that goes and then go forward from there. We want to make sure it is in writing too, so a follow-up e-mail after the conversation is probably a good idea. [/QUOTE]
