[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 144890, member: 3444"] If she didn't have a weapon with her, it's likely they'll just give her a warning or maybe a detention. My difficult child 2 made similar threats to some bullies one day when he just "happened" to have brought a Swiss Army knife to school. His account makes it sound like a bad coincidence, and everyone who interviewed him believed this to be the case. He ended up with a two-day suspension, and the school finally got off their butt and has been diligent about nipping the bully issue (which has been a campus-wide problem for years) AND placing difficult child 2 in a social skills group (which I've been asking about for 3 years) AND getting him assessed and approved for an IEP. So I guess my point here is that difficult child's often do impulsive, OMG-things because they lack the appropriate coping skills, and if no one gets hurt, there can often be some good that comes from the situation if the adults involved (i.e. the school) are smart and able to learn from the experience. Hope that's the case for you and your difficult child! [/QUOTE]
