[QUOTE="Bugsy, post: 90389, member: 1680"] Hi There, I am also juggling who I tell and how much as well. My thought is I try to get a sense if the place/people have any experience with a challenging child. If so and I decide this may be a good fit I tell them some generic things that are more acceptable first, like focus issues, may need redirecting, he can misunderstand another child's action etc. But I also get to the point of making them aware of medications. G-D forbid there was an accident at school and a hospital/medic situation was involved I want them to know his medications and what interacts with it. I ALWAYS make it known that only the people that I feel need to know this info should know. I stress the "I am sure everyone here is professional and knows that talking about a child's confidential information is inappropriate and even grounds for dismissal." So far I have had a very positive relationship with schools and camp. They appreciate my honesty and how much we have done for our son and we appreciate how professional, loving and supportive they have been. I have no idea if my rambles were helpful to you, I hope so. Good luck, bugsy's mom [/QUOTE]
