[QUOTE="Woofens, post: 212825, member: 4425"] I wish I could offer helpful advice, but I can't, as I was in the same situation with difficult child D, and he ended up dropping out/ getting kicked out for truancy. He also was in an online school. Hopefully the call you made to the teacher can help. difficult child D didn't think there would be consequences to him dropping out, that he could get his GED and a job and go on to Technical school. He quickly realized that getting a job as a 10th grade drop out, especially in today's economy, is extremely hard. He hasn't even gotten an interview at any place he applied, even the fast food places. I truly believe it is because he didn't finish school. difficult child D was only 3 months from 18 when he decided to quit, so at least you have options with Wynter. With difficult child D, it was pointless to try to put him back in a regular school, since I knew that even if he did attend, it would only be until he turned 18 in October. We tried the online school because he refused to attend the brick and mortar school here. I wish I could be more help, but I wanted you to know I feel for you. Hugs Jan [/QUOTE]
