[QUOTE="Star*, post: 93312, member: 4964"] Midwest Mom, First of all - I will make this to the point and explain why. You don't stink at anything. Not even math. You just didn't have anyone explain math to you so you could understand it when your brain was in a state (school) that said "I should be getting this". Everyone learns differently but very FEW teachers explain differently so we can grasp things if we don't get "it". I went for years thinking I stink at math, I am not good at math and met a woman that asked me one day about a bookkeeping problem. I said "I'm stinky at math" and she said "Let me show this way" and I said "Nope! See? I am just dumb." and she said "Well, lemme think - OH OKAY Star....let me explain it to you like this." and she did and now I "GET" it. So for years on that one subject (math) that I thought I was bad at it snowballed into years of me thinking I was bad at lots of things. When in reality my teachers were the ones that didn't explain it in a way I could understand or my brain wasn't ready to "get it". Dont' give up - you're a smart Mom. Now as far as the racist bus driver. Sigh - I'm really sorry but I think the school district has done all they are going to do. We have tapes here on our busses and it's been very helpful to convict most difficult child's of assault and battery. The day a kid shot 3 paint balls at my windshield with a high caliber gun = no tape, it was broken. Imagine that. I hope they cut off his trigger finger. HA. Sorry to hear you're still having issues with these folks. It's not just where you live - ignorance knows no boundaries. Star [/QUOTE]
