    one good thing about prison

    I hate to say it but that is so true! I felt guilty at first but I don't anymore. My son is mostly doing better and trying so it's been ok. I just sometimes feel so sad too though. My daughter and I are repairing a messed up relationship where both of us put my son first because of his daily...

    substance abuse my 15 year old

    I tried for years and from marijuana to heroin and meth to get help both mental and substance abuse for my son. He's 19 now and in a program in prison. He still doesn't think marijuana is where it started but we saw it. Ended him up stealing a car after burglarizing a house to get the keys all...

    I guess I'll never understand !!!

    I know how you feel. I could have written that first sentence you wrote yet I got so upset that my daughter didn't seem to notice I was ignoring her back that I texted, called, and emailed apologies when I don't think I'm wrong but I can't stand for her to ignore me. Then after a day of that I...

    I deserve my Sanctuary

    First of all, I get it. I have a 19 year old who's put me through the same thing for the last 5 years. Now he's in prison where he finally sobered up enough for both him and me to see he can be a responsible adult and he's not even on his medications. I had to let go because there was nothing I could...

    Just How Do You Get ODD 13-yr Old To Go To School And Stay???

    Thank you. He does not have an IEP. I know it would have helped but we have had issues with the counselor all year at school. Every time we tried to get something in place, she put up roadblocks. She is also the one who turned us in to CPS for supposedly saying our son, who was well-planned...

    Just How Do You Get ODD 13-yr Old To Go To School And Stay???

    Sorry not to have answered yesterday and I appreciate the support so quickly. We had a bad night; what's new? We don't have a neuropsychologist and the Learning Disability (LD) diagnosis was sort of generic. Basically it was more about the fact that he can't finish long written exercises and does better with keyboarding...

    Just How Do You Get ODD 13-yr Old To Go To School And Stay???

    My supposedly ODD ADHD son has left school several times over the last two school years, mostly due to being bullied by students (and occasionally a coach). He did it 4 times without permission by simply walking out the door. We worked out a system where if he thought he couldn't handle the...

    First, thank you all for the support! I really need it! I spent half the day on the the phone with the school principal and my son's psychologist because he was so bullied by other kids AND a coach this morning that he called his grandmother and told her he had a doctor's appointment after...

    difficult child 13-yr old son diagnosis with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) ODD ADHD Bipolar & I am at my wit's end

    Hi, I am new here and haven't posted before. I have been lurking and seeing many of you in similar situations. I just need a friend or two. I made it through the work day without crying so that is a record for the last month, I think. My 13yr old son has been giving us trouble since he was...

    Child with- Social/Emotional Issues but does not qualify for IEP

    Please please listen to this people and get the testing started NOW or you will not have it in place by the time he starts Jr. High. We were in the same boat two years ago and I am kicking myself for not going ahead to a psychologist for testing. My son is 13 and just now, in the 7th grade and...
