[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 644982, member: 11791"] I feel for you. I really REALLY do. School is toxic for some of our kids. If I understand right, you are in a state where there is no allowance for that... which in my opinion is insane, but we can't change it. I had TWO kids go off the rails in grade 9. One dropped out. The other I pulled out and am home schooling, things are going much more slowly on the school side but huge improvements in attitude etc. BUT... I had a good relationship with that one before I pulled her from school. Your difficult child sounds like she needs serious professional help. There is more going on than you are aware of, and nobody else is prepared to step up to the plate and recognize this. Here, they have something called "shared custody with foster"... where a foster home or group home takes the kid and has primary physical custody and day-to-day "parenting", but the real parent is involved in all of the decisions etc. (whether the kid wants that or not...) You need something. Anything. Right now, [I]you are burning out[/I]. I can "hear" it in your posts. been there done that. [I]You have to find a way to shed enough of the load that YOU survive and are healthy[/I]. It's the only way you will have anything left to give. [/QUOTE]
