I am FURIOUS with difficult child, ready to strangle him, furious.
Got a call from school admin. difficult child had an incident on the bus. Since we are rural all ages ride on one bus. difficult child put grease in a first grade girls hair. Her parents are understandably mad. I would kick my **** if I were them, seriously. How seriously wrong is a 6'2" almost 16 year old who picks on a what...? 6 or 7 year old girl. This is the second such incident this year. Earlier in the year he tore another youngsters backpack strap. May be the same girl too for all I know.
I think I'm going to pop a vein in my forehead right now I am so mad.
Plus, I get the joy of transporting this beast of mine 10 miles away and back to school for two weeks. He deserves it naturally but now I have to pay for it. Aside from gas it will be a serious hassle to have to get a baby who HATES her car seat strapped down twice a day. With the back and forth for me to get home it adds up to 400 miles.
Then there is the fact that I JUST made headway with the school over IEP issues.
My favorite part is that we live in a village of 370 people. The town the school is in is 2000 people. EVERYONE will be wagging their lips over what a complete monster difficult child is and I can't blame them.
I know he has a disorder but if he is going to act out in this way I'm beginning to think he can't be saved. Good grades are one thing but when it comes to making the choice to bully innocent people in sick ways well........I just don't know what to do. I am deeply shamed by his actions. I am disgusted.
I know yelling at him like I want to won't get through to him. I know bullying him so he gest a taste of it won't be appropriate either. This kid has fake remorse and is only sorry when he is caught. The only "tool" at my disposal is to withdraw from him because that really hurts him. Of course that is mean because he has zero friends and who wants to shut out a poor depressed kid who is very lonely.
Someone tell me what I am supposed to do, please.......
