[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 461465, member: 11791"] What we were told - [U]every single year[/U] by teachers, school admin, social workers, etc., until the last 3 months... is that our child is not "special needs", that we as parents are in fact creating 100% of his problems. The message was, consistently: Get out of our face, get out of our way, WE know what is best for your child. We came within a hair of suicide, and a raft of other problems - none of which would have happened if school would have listened. SO... every time I hear a "teacher-rant" like this? I have to wonder... just how many other kids are out there like our difficult child - kids who nobody believes, kids who don't have PITB or pitbull parents, who are willing to go to any length to find real answers. Because... the school system (and the medical system, to be fair) have made absolutely ZERO provisions for kids like ours. Yes, there are PITB parents who should NOT be that way. The "not my poor innocent little Johnny" syndrome parents. So... How can we tell the two classes of parents apart? I don't have an answer... yet. [/QUOTE]
