[QUOTE="Coookie, post: 124145, member: 1587"] Hi Jen, I apologize for not being totally familiar with your situation but if this is the 14yo it would be pretty tough to carry her to the truck. Natural consequences comes to mind. Do you call the school and tell them she is sick? or do they call you? I think I would just be honest and tell them she won't get up and go. I know how hard that would be and how tough it would be on me.... people thinking I couldn't handle my own kid, but in reality... I couldn't. My difficult child is older and the hardest thing for me has been to step out of the way and let natural consequences be his teacher. I always seemed to run interference and if I had it to do over again I would have stopped a lot sooner. Like I said, I am not familiar with your situation and if I have spoken out of turn please forgive me but if your difficult child has to deal with the school she may look at things a little different. We can hope. Hugs for your weary heart. [/QUOTE]
