[QUOTE="tryinghard, post: 119913, member: 4570"] Hi Elise, I am new to the site but felt compelled to drop you a quick note. First of all, hang in there and try your best to enjoy each day with your children. I know it sounds corny, but sometimes things seem so hard and I am so tired, I forget that this is a journey and you need to try and sit back and enjoy it as much as possible. I too had a meeting at school this morning and had to hear about all the negative things my son does. In addition, at the end of the conference, I was told the teachers felt I was enabling him not supporting him. I have heard this over and over for many years. The problem is they do not understand because they do not have children with the same needs as ours. I am hear to tell you that I understand I am know you are a good mother who is trying everything to help her child. I believe that most teachers mean well. They just do not understand that what works with most children does not work with ours. Hang in there and stay positive. What you teach them may help the next parent\child they deal with in the future. My sister in law once told me that our job is to educate people so they can better understand our children. It is so true. There is hope....my nephew was the worst child I had ever seen in my life. So many issues. With love, patience and many tears....he is now a lovely well mannered 18 year old. You would never believe he is the same child!!! I wish you peace and patience. Hang in there and take care of yourself. [/QUOTE]
