My mother passed away Sunday afternoon in my home. We had expected her to pass but not this soon - of course anytime is too soon. She is no longer suffering and is at peace.
I know I posted about my son being arrested but unsure if I re-posted to tell that we hired an attorney. Now I have decided to home school him until we get some medication to take care of his anger control issues. I don't even know where to start but start I must and soon. I don't want him to get behind.
I enrolled him in Florida Virtual but they said it could take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks for him to be placed in classes. It is all on-line. I do want to put him back in High School but right now he can't afford to get into any more trouble. I was planning on letting him home school for 3 months at the most. Then he would miss FCAT (which in my opinion is a joke anyway) so I don't know what that will do.
I guess some things are a blessing in disguise. I have to call his guidance counselor today and talk to her about my plans for my son and see if they can help him stay on track until he starts the FL Virtual classes. So even though my sisters and I have so much to take care of this week with arrangements and such for mom the things that I have to do for my son are some what of a distraction for me. Neither my mom passing or my sons troubles are in anyway a good thing but at least his stuff is keeping me busy!
If anyone has any suggestions/advice on homeschooling or the virtual on-line classes feel free to let me know. Need all the help I can get.
