UPDATE:
I just returned home. The school conducted their search and difficult child was found with razor blades in her purse.
She was immediately suspended. The school is not sure what the entire consequence for this incident will be--so for now, I was asked to take her home while they discuss the issue. They are supposed to give me a call later today.
As for difficult child? She is furious! She started to argue with the vice principal who simply told her "Sorry, but you can't bring a weapon to school."
As we left the building, she began talking about how everything bad happens to her and life is so unfair and this was not her fault. The she started talking about suicide again.
I asked her if she needed to talk to someone about feeling that way and she said "no".
I will keep an eye and if anything happens, I will take her straight to ER.
Thanks for being so supportive. I am just shaking!!!
But at the same time, I am very relieved that nobody at the school got hurt.
