C got suspended from school this morning for 5 days. I totally understand why, but I'm not real happy about it because him being at school during the day is the only reason I can pass as being sane. He threw a tantrum & called his teacher a stupid fa**Occupational Therapist (OT). Then he left the school. They called me & the police. Then the principal went out & just followed him to make sure he didn't get hurt or anything. The principal has been trying to help C stay out of trouble & give him ways to de-escalate, it worked for a couple weeks, but now C says he doesn't have to follow any school rules. He keeps saying "My doctor said I'm ODD & bipolar, so I don't have to follow everybody else's rules." The doctor didn't say that--C added the part about following rules himself. Anyway, he made it home. We had court at 1:30pm today to plead down from dv to disorderly conduct from his old charges. They gave him house arrest with special directions--no computer, no phone, & no contact with friends outside of being at school. We go back in 3 weeks to deal with his dv charges from last Monday + the unruly juvenile charges that the school is pressing on him today. We were at court from 1:00pm until 4:00pm. Right now C thinks that this house arrest is a joke & that if he gets on my nerves enough I'll get him out of the house arrest. Not gonna happen!!! Besides it's the courts decision, not mine.
