I think I should have let them uproot difficult child for the 5th time last year. I got my way and she got to stay in the school she is in but without her sped class. She uses Resource instead.
First it was the camp thing. On top of them telling me lies about the camp (to get me to say she couldn't go), now difficult child is coming home telling me she doesn't want to leave me for 3 days. difficult child has never cared about leaving me for any length of time for fun things. Someone put this in her head. She goes to camp every summer. She knows what camp is. (I posted about this last week)
difficult child was in Student Council last year. This year her regular ed teacher never even sent anything home about it. I had no idea until difficult child came home crying on Thursday that she didn't get to run and they had already voted.
The kid that she called her "boyfriend" last year is still in this school. First he brought a porn magazine to school a couple of weeks ago and showed it to difficult child. She told me, talked to the school, and they said they search him daily and that wouldnt' have gotten past them. Yea right. difficult child described it in great detail. I assure you, she saw it.
Next same kid started to tell her what he thinks "sex" is. :scared: She came home and told me so I talked to the teachers. The teachers told him he had to break up with difficult child. So he did. Now he's ignoring her and she's crying again. I wanted them to "break up" but my heart breaks for difficult child. She doesn't have many friends in her class this year.
Her regular ed teacher this year doesn't seem as involved as her 4th grade teacher. In 4th grade the teacher made an extra effort to help difficult child fit in. Doesn't seem like this one does much of anything to help her. Seems she goes out of her way to leave her out.
I have to get her private school next year somehow. I just can't keep doing this. She did so well last year. The support was tremendous. That's why I wanted her to stay at this school again this year. Big mistake
