[QUOTE="Steely, post: 143829, member: 3301"] Just wanted to say hi - and welcome. Yes, you did find the right place by posting on our board. And may I add you are an [I]amazing [/I]sister. AMAZING. I am blown away by your maturity. Others have said so many great things. But bottom line it is not your fault. DK needs some help. She needs to have some testing by a psychiatrist, and maybe some medications that help her calm down. What has been done so far in terms of testing by the school, or by doctors? There are many laws that the school districts have to adhere to if the child is disabled in any way, including reading, or behavior - but you have to have the testing in place to prove the disability and enforce the laws. My son was very much like your sister. By third grade I was in the school every day fighting for him to stay in the main stream school setting - rather than detention or alternative school. It was very, very hard. Keep posting. You have definitely found the most amazing, supportive group of parents on the planet. [/QUOTE]
