The man from the state agency didn't call today- nor did the PO or anyone from the judge's office. They'll probably be off tomorrow due to it being veteran's day and then we'll be forgotten by Wed.
On a good note, difficult child had his first individual session with the new therapist- this is the therapist that gave group therapy in the psychiatric hospital when difficult child was in this past spring. They both remember each other- difficult child said the therapist remembered everything he said while in psychiatric hospital and difficult child likes him. He said the only person who would understand more would be someone who had actually gone thru everything he had- I can understand that feeling and there is truth to it. Anyway, therapist remembered difficult child, too, and I did feel more hopeful about this one than the others when I met with him first. Let's just hope that lasts!
Now, he is the second therapist to try to get difficult child to tell him what forum I post on about the difficult child stuff. difficult child says he won't tell because he knows it's my "private space". I know with the first therapist that asked, difficult child did not tell. I'm just curious, has anyone else had tdocs trying to find out about this site? My posts would make it more than obvious who I am and given all that we discuss here, I wouldn't feel comfortable with therapist reading it all.
Oh- I had called last week about seeing a female therapist for myself in the same office- she returned my call today but I was transporting difficult child. She said she'd call again tomorrow.
difficult child didn't go to school again today. We had an IEP meeting set up for tomorrow but then the CM from school emailed and said there were no available teachers. You would think she would check that before setting a meeting time wouldn't you? I have been trying to get her to set a meeting since Oct. I know, they can't do that. But, I can't afford a Special Education attny every time they push things. The people in this county are just lame brains. I'll save that vent for another time. Let's just say that I feel sorry for anyone who needs support or a safety net from this county because it will make your (and difficult child's) life and the entire situation worse instead of better.
