[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 6303, member: 1697"] another little tidbit..... this year the school devolped a new policy re prearranged absences. You cannot get the homework or classwork ahead of time- they will not release it. It is done when the kids return back to school, so for the doctor appts, we come back and have a flood of work, all due at once and the 3 hours we spend nitely is how long it takes BEFORE we do "makeup work" Yes, I am resigned to the fact it is time....I thought I had a little more time before I would have to bring him to homeschool. I suppose how much more time could that take than I am already spending and then maybe his self esteem can remain intact, but.....how I feel about it personally? Not confident, and not good, I am hurt, angry, resentful, scared, frustrated. Our world at home is so isolated and so small and so confining with dad so ill and older sister ill and family estranged etc. and he likes school. BUT he has been saying this year little comments like mom, I think they want me to disappear, mom, they said my eye is ugly (the teachers, not the other students) and here it is 11 PM and he just said mom, the principal lady scared me, was she gonna hurt me? Yikes! SOmehow I feel like I failed as a parent, to keep him feeling safe, and I am so sad that he cannot go to school and just have it be "normal" It hurts. [/QUOTE]
