[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 482167, member: 8831"] sigh. i try to be consistent. one of our rules this year is that if you get detention, automatic punishment from electronics for the day. havent had a single problem with school all year, until today. i dont have the details yet, just the dreaded message that she has detention on monday for a problem with a teacher today (sigh, the one old, crotchety one of course). i dont want to make excuses for any bad behavior, but i actually do [B]know[/B] the contributing factor today. she vomitted all of her medications this morning. i was afraid to re-give them, so she is probably completely medication-free today. i'll bet she feels like koi. (guess thats a HUGE testimonial to how much the medications do help!). so i'm leaning toward not punishing at home--she'll still have detention of course. she'll tell me the truth when i ask what happened today, so unless its some crazy bad offense i think its probably unfair to punish. (not a doubt it was either rudeness or work refusal) wwyd? [/QUOTE]
