Here we go again!
Yet another incident of lying to me by difficult child 1 this morning.
He has been lying to me for who knows how long about lunch. I asked this morning if he has lunch money, to which he quickly replied "yes". I asked him to show me, since he has a history of automatically saying yes to anything that's asked of him. He opened his backpack and showed me the SAME $5 bill he showed me YESTERDAY.
I have a feeling that most days he skips lunch and hangs out in the library.
With all the problems he's been having getting work done in class, I am SURE that lack of food is compounding everything.
He says he knows it's bad for him to do, but that he just doesn't feel hungry. He's already underweight as it is and he has a GI disorder that interferes with nutrition. He cannot afford to slack on calories.
I told him if he doesn't eat, either I will come to school every day to make sure he does, have the counselor check on him to make sure he does, or send him to the office to make sure he does. But no matter what, he HAS to eat!!!
AAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!!!
