into the fire!
Actually, the h-e-double hockey sticks that we had difficult child 1 in can't be outdone as far as incompetance went, but now with the whole new environment, we have to "re-train" everyone on him and the garbage he pulls.
difficult child 1 had a meltdown the 1st day in his new school. Restrained, but not injured. He decided that physical reactions to problems was not the way to go.
Day 2: 50 out of 50 points! Perfect day!
Day 3: 45 out of 50 points, but requested to go to the timeout room rather than having a meltdown.
Day 4: today: Guidance counselor calls. "We may be calling 911 and you may have to meet him at psychiatric emergency because he threatened suicide." Oh man! Not again. Explain to them that he does this when he feels trapped and he knows a physical confrontation will be a losing battle. Explain that it will cause more damage anxiety wise if they do it. Explain that he will have consequenses at home. Explain, explain, explain.
Have to get a letter from his Psychiatrist that he's not a danger to himself. They need it for school on Monday (I told them he's seeing a new therapist on Saturday as his psychiatric services were severed when we left the school). I'm re-registering him with the psychiatrist on Tues. so that he can continue in her care at a different location.
New therapist is not allowed to write the note. Old therapist says psychiatrist has to write it, psychiatrist hasn't called back yet.
I'm running away and not leaving a forwarding address! AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!
Thanks for letting me vent!
