[QUOTE="tinamarie1, post: 37156, member: 255"] I have had it up to my ears with the petty b.s. that goes on at school. Just this week, difficult child had to go to the principal because a little boy told him "your momma looks like michael jackson" to which difficult child replied, "no she doesn't my mom is not black"....he got written up for a racial slur, ugh! I know he is not a perfect angel, but sometimes I feel like he has a target on his back. Whenever something comes up missing, all the kids blame difficult child, when someone gets hurt, they all blame difficult child. He has all but given up on school. Refuses to do his work almost all the time, and he is super smart! Thats what gets me. We are about to move to Virginia over the summer and I am seriously contemplating homeschooling him. I am scared, its a huge leap. And I know it sounds selfish, but I am afraid we will be joined at the hip....and that will result in me losing my sanity. Not only that, but my math skills leave alot to be desired...what if I don't get the concepts to teach him? Has anyone done this? Any words of advice? did it work for you, help things with- difficult child? thanks tina [/QUOTE]
