[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 405183, member: 1233"] Go with your instincts. The school wants to push you now before you get a doctor on board to send them a letter saying that she needs homebound because homebound costs them more. Does difficult child have an IEP? If not, go to the sp ed archives and find the letters asking for the evaluations, etc.... and get that ball started. There MUST be a plan before she returns. Period. I cannot see a benefit to her going back to school before services are in place, but I am not there. Whatever your instincts and whatever the docs from OR suggested that felt right are what is right for your child. School is NOT NOT NOT the expert on your child, regardless of what they say or want. YOU are that expert. Don't go against your instincts. Have you contacted any of the homeschool groups to see about doing something with them? You can also use sunday school to see how she will do in a more social gathering. At least wait until after Sunday to make any decisions about tossing her back into school so soon. You are probably right about jumping right back into school causing lots of anxiety. Until she has some tools and the ability to use them, this anxiety is counterproductive, in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
