[QUOTE="missmommy, post: 706756, member: 21323"] I can't even express how grateful I am for your responses. I do not know why the school has suddenly decided to wash their hands of us. That's definitely the feeling I get. He has annoyed them for far too long! Apparently. His teacher is a special education teacher. They claim they've done all possible accomodations. It wasn't until finding Dr. greene's site, Lives in the Balance, that I've even been able to pinpoint what accomodations he really needs. I'm starting to learn now. He is smarter than most adults and that does tend to put teachers on the defensive with him. He was in trouble on day one this year because a teacher asked the students to read a passage and he read his quickly and put his book down. The teacher called him out saying he was goofing off when in fact he had read the passage and was finished. She made him take a quiz on the material to prove he knew it. And he did. She had no choice but to apologize. So ultimately she looked silly and he felt superior which leads to more problems between them. It is hard for him to find adults he respects and even harder for him to falsify respect for adults he dislikes or lacks attachment to. [/QUOTE]
