[QUOTE="Shari, post: 172933, member: 1848"] Yes, Marg, sorry, its the 6 year old. And don't get me wrong. It [I]WAS [/I]a good day (til the tantrum at the end). And then as I recapped my notes to document for the in-home, is when I realized my idea of good and normal has gotten a little strange. lol There were 14 kids on the trip. I think 5 are girls, and one is an older boy, maybe 8 or 9. Several of the kids are 5 year olds. Other than some running and being loud, the rest were very well behaved. Heck, I was pleased with difficult child (although I'm not sure it quite qualified as "socially acceptable", so we'll see if I get an F from the in-home tomorrow....) He was forwarned that he would stay at school til the school day was over, just like he went early this morning at the regular school day start, and I disappeared until field trip time. They did not have to restrain him after they finally caught him, but they did have to corner him...if ther didn't keep him "cornered", he kept running off. The only real [I]bad [/I]part of the day, for me, was after they explained how the rest of the afternoon went, I learned that both of his regular teachers are going to be gone starting tomorrow for at least the next 10 days (one had vacation plans and airline tickets, the other has a family member in critical condition after an accident), and the "subs" (not true subs, all are teachers at his school, just not generally [I]his[/I] teachers) don't think they can handle him, particularly in off-site situations, so I either have to take off work to attend with him, or he stays at school and misses out on the field trips til the regular teachers come back.
