[QUOTE="buddy, post: 535411, member: 12886"] That is a great way to put it. Q DOESN"T want me to keep him safe or want my help not to make mistakes. Says, you gotta take a risk mom, or you never know. (well, I HAVE son, and you blew it!)..... But wanting the help or not....I guess this is exactly what I have gone back to. Though last year at this time I would have thought very differently because he was on such an upward spiral. (I know part is puberty/medications but I am really angry with the school the more I realize how different this school is, they really made things so much worse). Q obviously has more cognitive delays, but probably isn't much different in the sense that he wants to do what the other kids his age are doing socially. He just can't. He is not ready. It is really hard to take a step backward though, right? I mean for things I haven't let him do yet, it is not such a fight....but this going back to higher level of supervision and structure really blows. Especially for a kid who gets aggressive verbally and physically. [/QUOTE]
