[QUOTE="slsh, post: 195366, member: 8"] Gosh... that's a hard place to be in. I agree with working with a counselor on this, but I also think that if it's causing him that much distress, he needs to have an out of some kind. Hurts my heart to think that he's stressing so much over this. I'd talk to science teacher and explain his severe anxiety over this subject. I'd just tell her very frankly what the problem is and see if she has any ideas on how to help him through it. You might also want to call for an IEP meeting? I mean, if a topic of study is causing him so much fear, I would think it's a reasonable accommodation to do an alternate subject. It's counterproductive to terrorize a kid, and it sounds like your son is having more than just queasiness over the topic. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this and especially sorry he's so shaken.
