[QUOTE="branbran, post: 84534, member: 3762"] I often feel like giving up and running away!! Sometimes it gets to be too much, the thought of one more minute of this horror is too much to bear. I think we have all been there quite a few times and will be there quite a few more times. My daughter has struggled in school since pre-k, the homework battle was hell every night of the week. I used to have to sit with her and do her homework with her, I did that up until she went into her first Residential Treatment Center (RTC), when she was 15. I was always jealous of the parents who just had to tell their children to do their homework and boom it got done. Sometimes the homework wars got so bad we would both end up in tears. I agree with tiredmommy, maybe it's time for a re-evaluation, maybe he isn't in the right class. I found my difficult child did better once she went into Special Education. At first I was dead set against it, for fear she would be ridiculed, however it was just the opposite. She fit in better, she didn't stand out as "the bad kid" in class and didn't feel the need to act out as much. In Special Education she truly was with her peers, kids who were like her, kids who she could relate to. Just a thought. Do runaway, to the bathtub, light some candles and let Calgon take you away!!! Hang in there. [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
