[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 562180, member: 11791"] My head is spinning. This difficult child was homeschooled for 8 years? I'm not anti-home-schooling, but... it really masks a lot of problems, because they are not exposed to school. For example... many difficult child kids learn better one-on-one in a quiet environment, which is the polar opposite of school. He may have been far enough ahead of the game for grade 9 that he could coast, but as he reached the end of his prior knowledge... he just can't keep up, can't learn in school? There could be all sorts of reasons for this - anything from MI to developmental challenges (aspie, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), etc.) to Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) to who knows what else. But all HE knows is that he IS a failure and there's no point in being at school. Because THAT is what he learned in school. (and no, schools do NOT admit this, but we've been there done that) [/QUOTE]
