[QUOTE="STRESSEDTOMAX, post: 151588, member: 3512"] Thank you evryone- Thank God I at least have this board where people really understand. difficult child does have an IEP and it was upped a couple of months ago. He had about 6 weeks where there were no problems as far as school and now it's starting again. I get daily reports from the teacher and I am in constant communication with him. He had a really bad meltdown last week and I didn't send him on Thursday because he was so distraught. Friday everything was going great until he got out of the car and realized he forget something in the car. Even after we parked and gave it to him, he was already too far into his meltdown to stop. We took him home, he went back at 11 and had a great day. One thing that I thought was inter4esting was that he said to me: " I only have four hours at school left so it should be easier for me to be good". I know this is really not in his control. As for the principal, he was in a meeting(hiding) when my husband got there but the vice-principal actually told my husband to call the superintendent on him, which we will. Luckily, most of the kids at this school are switching to a brand new school next year, and this man will not be principle. When my husband got there, difficult child was calm and just wanted to call me to say goodbye. Then he calmly walked into the classroom. One thing that I do believe is a factor here is that he has this unbelievable attachment to me but not to my husband. He says he hates him and I know it's because my husband has a temper but it's so hard for me to blame husband either because he spends more time with him than me and tries so hard. I think u almost have to be superhuman to be patient with difficult child. ASlso, husband goes to NY one week a month and for many reasons, I don't think this helps. All I know for sure, is it's scaring me how often I fantasize about the life I would have had if I hadn't had difficult child. My other two kids are grown, everyone I know is going out to dinner and on vacations and we can't even go to the store or to the school without craziness. [/QUOTE]
