So, since there is to be a suspension Tomorrow for something that happened last Monday...we (the admin. and teachers and I) discussed that this will likely increase his anxiety and he may not be able to get his mind of it, resulting in less ability to regulate himself.
Yesterday he didn't do too badly...they felt maybe he is getting more mature and might handle it well...I felt he just knew it wasn't until Friday so he was not in panic mode yet.
WELLLLLL, he woke this morning....didn't say hi mom, he said I'm glad there are TWO more days of school (his way to reject whatever is happening...he always does this). I asked if that was really what was happening and he said he is not going to miss out on Friday.
He obsessed and perseverated about it all morning. So we will see what happens. I emailed school to warn them again that he is extra anxious. I said I felt he deserved extra consideration but that if he truly can't contain himself and I have to come and get him, then the suspension should be counted for today not added to the inappropriate punishment (i didn't say it that way of course, just to you guys to vent). I'm going to dress now so I am prepared because the gut feeling is there...
Good thoughts, good thoughts, good thoughts........
