[QUOTE="magpie, post: 11857, member: 359"] Hi, I have a similar situation to yours Sheila. My son is 11, diagnosis sped in first grade..ADHD and EBD..He has done quite well until lately. He missed an entire week of school the week before last and this morning refused to go. He is seeing a therapist weekly and his depression and acting out stem from losing his father three years ago, his grandfather in May and now his aunt, my sister a few weeks ago. He can't fall asleep, so he is very tired in the am. I could go on, but my point is tht I have an IEP tomorrow and I know they are going to address the concern about the absences and I'm not sure how to approach it. As a teacher, I should know more about the whole SPED process and what I can do, but I don't. I need help so he doesn't fall behind. He can't repeat 5th grade. He is so big and I know it will hurt his psyche even more. I'm wondering if I can insist on a tutor until we get his medication straight. When he is in school, he is so good and enjoys it. It is the process of getting there. Any advice for tomorrow would be helpful from anyone. Thanks. Debbie [/QUOTE]
