[QUOTE="buddy, post: 508957, member: 12886"] I get forcing her to go but not you putting on her shoes... no way. (smile! I am trying to picture that with a teenager!) Just me, but I would either have put them in a bag and given them to husband or sent her as is. Her choice to have cold feet. I dont know if this would work for you, but I have never made socks, shoes or coats etc. a battle and we live in a cold state. Ultimately he always chooses to come back and get what he is missing (I do bring stuff in the trunk etc.. just in case he changes his mind...) She can explain that little fit to her peers. Seems like husband did do some of it but just pooped out and that is not a choice....if he didn't want to do it in front of her--maybe afraid to trigger her again-- he could have called them, not you... though I would have been tempted to risk letting them see a hissy fit by going in with her and telling them in front of her. She is sooo up and down... They still dont think bi-polar right? and you have the family history too if I remember. Is she on bc? my niece flips out (not to this extreme but super unreasonable and screaming etc...) and it is all hormone related.... easy to track to her period. gosh, so sorry for this stress... yeah Just make the decision for her... ok you dont do math now, then we drop it. To make up the credit do summer maybe...one EASY math class. no longer her choice until she can handle more responsibility. It is all on her... when she can actually SHOW not just promise, that she can handle responsibility you can give some of the choices back. Just my thoughts but I am not having to actually be there and live it... and I know you are still working through the feelings that her potential or your dream for it is less for now...but it may not be a permanent thing...yes the typical schools have a time line but in real life... we have a life time to learn and get things done. Along with the sleep study did you ever do the neuropsychologist? I can't remember...sorry I should be able to remember that. Just seems like she has some issue going on... being gifted/having high potential does not mean there are not some subtle learning issues going on. Maybe not anything at all going on.... besides the mood/anxiety issues, but since our kids are so exquisitely sensitive to every little problem, if there is anything... ticking off a little extra issue or two (which ultimately can be huge to them) can at least make it so the other treatments have a chance.
