[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 213164, member: 1233"] Glad things are somewhat manageable with changed expectations. I hope you can get the medication situation figured out. It can be helpful to do a total medication wash, but it sure is stressful. What does his IEP say about extra time to get to class? Is it something you want to have added in, even just for a short time? It will not stop automated letters sent fromt he school (ours sends them out from the board of ed bldg with the principals' names on them - school never knows, so they come anyway, in spite of IEP;s)but it will keep them from trying to hold him back due to absenteeism or tardies, and keep the truant officer away from your door. Which can be helpful. As for the "unfairness" he may just have to work that out for himself in his own time. If it is an idea he just doesn't budge from, then medications may help, or may not. I heard the "unfair" and "you love X more than me" with X being anyone from the cat(s), siblings, neighbors, books, tv, teddy bear, well you get the drift. Maybe it is something to talk to his therapist about? [/QUOTE]
