[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 457446, member: 3419"] Thank you all. He is calmer today. And I have no email about the 504 mtng. Sigh. He is in 8th gr. (We held him back in 3rd gr.) He watered the plants and did 2 pp of math this a.m. Yeah, he happens to be excellent at directions. In fact, one of the aides yesterday said that if I was finished mtng the teachers, I could go, but I told her I was going to hang out and familiarize myself with-the rest of the bldg. She said that was a good idea, so I could show difficult child. Nononono, *I*'m the one who gets lost! difficult child had it memorized in the first 15 seconds last yr! lol! I hate going to restrooms in public places (malls, airports) because I'll turn left instead of right on my way out, but if difficult child is there, he just grabs my arm and rolls his eyes. :) One of the hard things about this is that because husband works such long hrs, he talks a good talk about what to do about difficult child, but then doesn't follow through. When he comes home, he crashes in front of the TV or eats and goes to bed. That leaves me to do the good, the bad and the ugly. It is soooooo frustrating! Anyway, at least difficult child knows that I will follow through on what I say because last night when I turned off the Internet, he went straight to bed with-no more argument. [/QUOTE]
