[QUOTE="Martie, post: 84954, member: 284"] Send the certified letter stating your belief that your child has a disability that impacts her ability to follows school rules and progress in the general education classroom. This will protect her legally. I would certainly think that two wetting accidents are a sign of anxiety in a child who has probably been toilet trained for years. IDEA 2004 is supposed to be more proactive and not require "waiting to fail." However, the brighter the child, the longer it takes for a negative academic impact to manifest at school. been there done that in grades 1-5 with ex-difficult child. One thing that helped was husband and I resigning from the routine of it taking "two parents two hours to get one kid two-tenths of a mile to school" each day. When attendance got poor, then ex-difficult child became more anxious (because he was behind), plus I live in a SD that wants "perfect" everything---kids (yeah, right), test scores, attendance rates, etc. So declining attendance was a sign that made a difference to them. Prior to "resigning", I also had a card you cannot "play" because the year before ex-difficult child weighed as much as me and was about 5 feet tall, so when husband traveled, there was no way I could force him into the car. I would just call and say he was refusing, I was alone....and THAT'S NEGATIVE IMPACT. I know this will not work for a child as young as yours, but it does illustrate that you need to figure out what it is that your difficult child might "do" that they will consider as having a negative educational impact.
