[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 305318, member: 2287"] Although my difficult child is now a lot older than yours, we went through exactly the same thing. I don't know what school district you are now in, even though I know HISD has many. I live south of there, in a different school disctrict. BUT in fifth grade I found out they have classrooms called SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT classrooms. It was the best thing we ever did for our son. The school district had to get him there on a special bus that picks him up at our door (still). The most there has ever been in his class is eight, with a teacher and an aide. He gets one-on-one all day. I'm not sure he would ever have learned very well without it. This year, eighth grade, there are only three in his class. He is trialing a mainstream class, but it isn't working very well. He just canNOT focus, period. He has few friends and I know it's hard, but life is hard. We can't make other people like our children. He had one friend for several years, but as they mature, his friend is moving on and difficult child is stuck at acting ten instead of fourteen. Anyway, I found out about the social development class by accident.....he should have been in a class like that from day one. All I'm going to tell you is ASK about it, or it could be a loooong time before the school district brings it up. PM me if you want. [/QUOTE]
